Speedball 4513 hinge clamp pair
A pair of screw-down hinge clamps turns a flat board into a bench setup for a hinged screen.
What this tool is for
A pair of screw-down hinge clamps turns a flat board into a bench setup for a hinged screen. The clamps grip the frame so you can lift it to change the sheet below, then lower the same screen for the next pull. That makes them a practical choice for a short run of one-color posters or cards when you already have a frame and a board to work on.

Fit and buying advice
The pair handles screen movement. Paper stops or another way to locate each sheet still determine where the design lands on the paper. Check the thickness of the edge you intend to grip and leave space behind the board for the frame to swing. If you need to rotate between several screens for different colors, compare a press with separate heads before building the bench around these clamps.

Questions about this tool
Can I keep the same print position while changing sheets?
Keeping the frame in the clamps preserves its position relative to the board. Use stops or marks to put the next sheet in the same place.
Can I attach a finished frame?
You need an accessible edge the jaws can grip. Check it directly if the frame has a tall rail, a rounded profile or hardware already in the way.
What should I allow for behind the clamps?
Leave room for the frame to swing upward and for your hand to loosen the screws when swapping screens.
