Safety Clamp Maintenance Tips
To function safely and have a long product life, clamp components should be disassembled and cleaned per the instructions contained within the clamps operational manual and logbook.
Each component should be thoroughly inspected for cracks, distortion and wear, and any component showing signs of these defects should be replaced. Upon reassembly, moving parts should be lubricated. See Safety & Inspection for detailed inspection notes.
Clamps should never be ground, welded or modified in any way and only maintenance kits and replacement parts from the manufacturer should be used with any kind of clamp.
Bird's Clamps offers maintenance and parts kits and demonstration videos for our clamp products.

Obtaining a repair and maintenance kit has many advantages, as all of the working parts of Bird's Clamps are replaceable. Through constant use, some components of a clamp may experience wear and tear over time. Using a maintenance kit produced by the manufacturer saves you the cost of ordering individual components, reduces the inventory hassle of keeping track of individual parts, simplifies maintenance and will result in a longer product life through more thorough and proper maintenance.
To reduce the necessity of replacing parts, all workers should be trained in using Bird's Clamps safely. Clamps should be frequently inspected to ensure they are in optimal working condition. The specifications of each clamp should also be suited to the requirements of each use.
When ordering parts, please specify tonnage rating and jaw range of the intended clamp, as shown below.
