What is the max width the clamp can accommodate?

I'd say 1 inch but it will clamp pretty well onto the thickness of a basic door (1 1/2"). Just wouldn't do that long term. It has rubber lining the inside edge of clamp to help grip.

The answer is, a 50" clamp will clamp a full 50". I have several of these clamps of different lengths and the nominal size is the clamping capacity. I measured a few of them to varify this. Hope this info helps.

The clamp is 2" wide. It doesn't need much space, and the bag can be slid out pretty far so as to it doesn't mess with the seat.

The clamp is adjustable from 0" to 1-58" for opening size. The depth of the clamp requires you have a overhang on your countertop of at least 1-1/2" in order for it to grab. This unit works best on a butcher-block type table or drawer that pulls out from underneath your cabinet.

Maximum width supported is 3.25". http://rammount.com/Gallery/reviewrammountsxgrip/tabid/4527/Default.aspx

The clamp opens up to just under 3 inches. I think you would need a couple of turns of the clamping mechanism to be effective. Therefore the effective clamping thickness is 2 7/8 inches.

Yes the measurement is the clamping capacity. But my suggestion to you is find a regular bar clamp, these are really cheaply made. I've ordered some and they arrived broken.

I apologize about my last answer. I see now that the clamp has dual clamp adjustments. There is a screw that can be loosened to allow for large scale adjustment of the clamp in addition to the finger wheel. It looks like it can clamp tables up to 1.75 inches thick.

If the back handles of the clamps are inserted to the table the max is 10". Otherwise, it is possible to utilize 12" when not inserted fully.

I just now measured the clamp for you and it can easily clamp 6" The opening was 6 3/8". Hope this helps. These are great clamps and I use them all the time.

We use ours on picnic table top made of 2 x 6's, but I'd have to say clamps open up wider than the 2 inches.

The clamp I bought is at my summer home so I can't measure it. One could rig a spacer, possibly triangular, shaped, to take the clamp out away from your material. I work with odd materials like barn siding, cactus skeleton, Antlers etc. amt the device has been very useful.

I have it mounted on a 2 inch metal railing, but that is the max to clamp onto. It opens just over 2 inches wide.

Yes this clamp is large enough for your railing. It will accommodate a railing up to about 4 inches deep and the width does not factor into it as it extends across for stability but is clamped actually clamped about an inch from the edge.

just barely two inches of space when clamp is fully opened, hope this helps.

If it's a thin wooden slat. No problem. The clamp can probably open up to about 1 1/2 inches.

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.
