What Are Floor Clamps Used For?

A floor clamp is used when laying flooring such as floorboards or laminate to pull boards together so that joints close tightly. It works by applying pressure across the floorboards, holding each board in the correct position, closing gaps, and creating a tight fit so each section is pushed fully home. Once the boards are aligned, they can be fixed or nailed to the joist securely.

What Makes This Clamp Reliable?

Our floor clamps that we hire out are high-quality. The solid grey iron casing keeps the mechanism fully enclosed, protecting against dirt, dust, and wind on site. The high-quality steel mainscrew is designed for strength, while the drop handle makes the clamp easy to rotate and lock in place. With spring-loaded cams and smooth operating bevel gears, the clamp is designed to deliver a positive grip every time if used correctly. Its compact design allows for easy portability between jobs, and the construction is extremely robust, trusted by professional flooring contractors as essential standard equipment.

How Do These Floor Clamps Operate?

The shoe sits firmly against the edge of the board. The mechanism engages as the handle is rotated, pulling the adjoining board into a secure position. Once the board is pushed tightly into place, the clamp holds it while it is fixed. The floor clamps system makes flooring installation straightforward, whether you’re working on timber floorboards or engineered laminate.
