Common examples include:
* **C-clamps:**
General-purpose clamps with a C-shaped frame and a screw for tightening.
* **Bar clamps:** Long clamps
with adjustable jaws for wider workpieces.
* **Pipe clamps:** Similar to
bar clamps but use a length of pipe for the clamping bar.
* **Quick-grip clamps:**
One-handed clamps for fast and easy clamping.

spring force to hold objects together.
Clamps are essential in woodworking, metalworking, welding, and other trades to ensure stability and accuracy during cutting, shaping, gluing, or assembly.
