Product Info

Twenty 1/8" cleco fasteners, two copper side grip clamps and the pliers that drive both. A starter kit for a first panel job, holding sheet metal by the hole and by the edge.

The cleco fasteners are spring loaded temporary rivets. Drill a #30 (3.2 mm) hole through both sheets, compress a cleco in the pliers, push it in and release. It pulls the sheets together and holds them until you take it out again.

The side grip clamps use the same pliers and need no hole. Compress the pliers to open the jaws, set the clamp over the panel edge or flange, and release. Copper clamps open to 1/2", enough for two or three sheets, and grip without marking or overtightening. Everything is reusable, and the pliers fit every cleco fastener and side grip clamp we sell, so you can add more later.

Features

  • Holds panels and edges before permanent fastening
  • One pair of pliers fits the pins and the side grip clamps
  • Clamp and release in seconds
  • Reusable for countless jobs

How to Use

Cleco Fasteners

  1. Position the panels - Place one panel over the other where you want to join them.
  2. Drill the hole - At each fastening point, drill through both panels with a drill bit that matches the cleco size.
  3. Load the cleco into the pliers - Squeeze the cleco pliers to compress a cleco fastener.
  4. Insert the cleco - Hold the pliers compressed, push the cleco into the hole, then release so it locks in place.
  5. Repeat along the joint - Continue drilling and inserting clecos at the required spacing until the panels are held.
  6. Remove when finished - Compress the cleco with the pliers and pull it out of the hole.

Side Grip Clamps

  1. Align the panels - Place the panels edge to edge in the position you want to hold.
  2. Load the clamp into the pliers - Squeeze the cleco pliers to compress a side grip clamp.
  3. Attach the clamp - Position the jaws across both panel edges, then release the pliers so the clamp grips.
  4. Remove when finished - Compress the clamp with the pliers and lift it off.
