Vintage Wetzler Clamps

[Bob McBreen]

My uncle was a builder, when he died my cousin inherited his tools. Getting ready to see the house he found a bunch of tools that he had no use for. They quickly became mine.

One of the treasures is a pair of six-foot clamps. Manufactured by Wetzler Clamp Company, Lomg Island City, NY USA. I have no idea how old they are but still in good shape.

Congrats. I have an affinity for Wetzlers and other old clamps as well. I only have 8-18” lengths of F style bar clamps in terms of the Wetzler brand, but do have a handful of 24-40” Hargrave / Cincinnati Tool Co heavy duty bars clamps that look very similar to your Wetzlers pictured as well as some much older Jorgensen bar clamps.

Keep your eyes peeled for these shorter Wetzler F style bar clamps in varying depths. They are incredibly strong and can be very useful.
