Which clamp is described as general use medium duty suitable for glue ups and various hold down purposes?

• A. F Clamp
• B. Large C Clamp
• C. Spring Clamp
• D. Pocket Hole Jig

Answer: (B)

In woodworking, glue-ups and hold-down tasks call for a clamp that can apply steady, adjustable pressure across the joint and adapt to a range of piece sizes. A large C-clamp fits that role as a general-use, medium-duty clamp. Its screw mechanism lets you tighten just enough to pull pieces flat without crushing them, and the frame provides solid support for clamping along edges or across through gaps. The larger throat depth lets you reach over thicker stock, making it versatile for many holding-down scenarios on a workbench or jig. While quick-use spring clamps are handy for light-duty tasks and bar clamps (F clamps) cover longer spans, the description given aligns best with a large C-clamp’s balance of strength, control, and broad applicability. A pocket hole jig isn’t a clamp at all—it’s a tool for drilling pocket holes.
