Irwin Industrial tools released a one-handed clamp/spreader. Here’s the feature list from their website;
- Patented POWER LOCKS™ hold more pressure, longer. Provides 550 lbs of one-handed force (900 lbs of two-handed force)
- I-Beam bar resists twisting and bowing allowing maximum force to be applied
- QUICK-RELEASE™ trigger for non-explosive pressure release
- QUICK-CHANGE™ jaw converts quickly into a spreader
- 3 foot throat depth accommodates larger workpieces
- Non-marring pads grip securely and protect workpiece finish
The Irwin XP Quick Grip clamp line ranges in sizes from 3 inches to 3 feet. The 3-foot model seems quite useful for any small to medium-sized carpentry job. We found these products all over the web with the best deals (as of this moment) found at pricegrabber.

These things seem to squeeze pretty good but they are slow. Each time you squeeze the handle the bar barely advances. This may not seem like a big deal until you are trying to position and reposition them over and over again. I like having more clamping force but I think Iwrin sacrificed travel for force. They’re expensive too and a lot heavier. I’ll stick with my old ones.
