How wide does the clamp open? I need about 3" clearance to get it on my bench and an inch wide for the bebch edge.

Opens approximately 2". I had to attach a 1 x 4 to my work table hanging out about 3" and mounted it to the overlap. Works well but not real heavy duty.

i just measued.. it opens exactly 3and 1/16" but... at 3 " it only has about 3 or 4 threads in so be careful, for there is no stop. It will unscrew all the way out. As far as mounting.. it opens exactly 1 and 7/8" In my opinion.. this is a great little vise.

I just now did an actual measurement of clamp surface to adjustment screw pad,(fully open) and I have 1 and 13/16 inches of opening; this is the adjustable opening maximum. The depth of the clamp, from the bottom of the U shape to the edge is 2 and 5/8 inches of opening. You can add another 1/8" to this depth as the adjuster pad extends beyond the clamp body. You can't trim back the clamp body to make it larger, (like with a hacksaw) as the body is not solid, but ribbed for extra strength. I may be wrong, but I think I saw these at Dick's Sporting goods, actually in the store. You could check online and call the store to see if they have it, and measure it yourself. ( I see that another answer gave different measurements...) These puppies are nice and sturdy; I use mine for canoe outriggers with two lobster floats attached to a tee. Good luck.

The clamp is 2 1/2" wide and about 2 3/4" front to back so should fit through a 3" round hole and definitely a 3" square hole.

It's wide enough to be clamped to a 3-inch high piece of vinyl fencing. I believe there's an inch to spare.

This clamp as is only opens to 13/4 inches and the square could accommodate 3/4 inch rod but as you say, may be snug The clamp portion could be adjusted to fit 2 inches if you could take off the bit attacked to the screw - would require some strength - and use a large flat washer and nut to use in its place. The fixed "C" is 2 1/4 inches.

No, the clamp only opens 1.5". It only fits on one area of my kitchen counter, so I more often clamp it to my kitchen table, which works nicely, as I can sit down while I use it.

I have three of them for my pontoon boat which has 1" wide rails. The clamp at it's maximum opening is 1 3/4" inch. Hope that helps.

The clamps will open fully about 3 1/4 inches. If your overhang is about 4 inches before the lip you would be fine.

It's a clothespin style clamp so should be able to open wide enough to accommodate, but there's no maximum or recommended width provided by the manufacturer.

It will open to about three inches. I have it holding on a two inch frame. hope this helps. It's quiet to use and moves some area for my bonsai.

I am pretty sure the ratcheting action of the clamp will fit that width easily. It was an outstanding piece of safety equipment and invaluable during my wife's surgical recovery!

Sorry for the delay. I do not think it will work. The clamp only opens to about 4". Clamping on 3/4" is no problem. If you can't find anything else that will work, you could consider cutting a notch in the front lip just large enough to allow the clamp. However, do you have to clamp from the front? Is it possible to clamp from the back?

~1" wide and when opened it will slid over 1/4"(+). As you screw the clamp 'open' it will open the jaws slightly more than 1/4"

I just measured mine. It's 2.5 at the widest end. It should work & give you enough difference to make it snug. It's rubber so you can really work with it. I use mine for our sleeve on our decking & works fine.

The clamp is plastic with 3 rubber suction cups on the top and the bottom. The clamp is 3 inches across and opens up about 2 inches maximum.

My bike (Trek 4500) has a 17" frame and 26" wheels & tires. With the stand raised only part way up, there is about two feet of clearance from the bottom of the tires to the ground. I imagine the stand can accommodate any standard production bike of any frame-size. Meanwhile, the clamp opens to about 3.5 inches wide at its widest, and from there clamps down to about 2.5 inches, so I imagine it should accommodate top tubes of up to 2.5 inches in diameter. I'll try to post photos of the clamp with a measuring tape on the product's amazon page.

outer dimension of the square tube is 1 3/4" and my bench has a 1 7/8" opening to accept it.
