American Tool Companies. Inc., makers of the popular and distinctive black & yellow pistol grip "Quick-Grip" line of bar clamps, has a new smaller version on the market. The smallest of the original line of clamps was the 6" Mini Bar Clamp, model #00546. The new clamp is of much lighter weight, with a maximum spread of 4.75", and is called the Micro Bar Clamp, model #53006. The pistol grip type of tightening device makes the clamps so easy to use. Though the smaller clamp does not have the strength of the larger clamp, it is adequate for more delicate jobs and can replace little C clamps for, for instance, corner mending.
