The description says the clamp fits tables 1.75 in thick. My table is 2 inches. A writer here said it would fit up to 3 inches. Which is correct?

Hi Deborah, The company does not publish what size of table it fits. But the clamp open ups pretty big. I think it can handle your table. Thanks, Scott

The clamp that came with my light is a total of 2.4-2.5 inches (measured on the inside not including the metal plate on the top of the clamp used for maintaining position). It can fit up to 2 inches. The table mine is attached to is a little under 2 inches and it fit with some room to spare. It will not fit much more than that since the entire clamp is only about 3 inches long. Hope this information helped.

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.

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

They should work fine. It's not the length of the table that matters. It's how thick the tabletop is. These clamps will fit up to a 1-3/4" thick tabletop.

the clamp is built into the grey posts. Its not a strong clamp but it work as long as there is enough table edge to clamp on.

Clamp measures 2 inches. So I would say u would need about 2.5 inches to easily attach. Good luck

The clamp will fit on any table I can imagine. The clamp is very adjustable. It can be as wide or as narrow as you want. Its a clamp.

Some answers state 1, 1 1/2-2 inches while 1 answer states it can actually accommodate 3 inches. Is there anyone who knows exactly the clamp width? I have a 2 inches thick headboard therefore 1 1/2 would not work but if it can really accommodate 3 inches then it would work for me! :-) Thanks!

The one we purchased expands to 1 3/4". The one we purchased fits beautifully on the 5' plastic folding table we had purchased at Walmart years ago. Hope this helps!

I measured with a ruler, and the clamp will open up to a full inch. It might stretch a little further if necessary. But, I think you should be in very good shape with 1/2 inch.

I had my clamp-on deck hook installed at 3 1/2 inches. It is an adjustable clamp so it will go even wider than that. It is sturdy and I highly recommend it.

It should fit. The clamp opens to 1 5/8", so you have 1/8" clearance. Then, in order to tighten it, the lip of your table needs to be less than 3/4" wide, so that the clamp doesn't hit it when screwing it tight. The table being 3/4" is no problem.

Hi and thank you for contacting us! Yes, the clamp is adjustable up to 2 inches.

It will clamp just fine. I did not measure but i would guess it's about 5 inches rhick

I think so...if I understand your question. I'm using it on a table where the top extends 1.5" from the table's frame. 1.5" looks to be the minimum. 1.75" should provide plenty of table top to clamp to.

The clamp is large. The opening measures three and a half inches so 3 inches or less should be fine

I did a little experimenting and the smallest block of wood I could get in it and all the "jaws" clamping it correctly was 2 inch by 4 inch. Of course, you could always use spacers. As far as thickness, I've clamped 1/4 inch thick stuff before, but you can only use slight pressure or the wood will bend.
