How wide does the clamp open? I need to clip it to my Kawaii grand piano music stand which is a hair thicker than 1/2 inch.

I measured it and it is good up to 3/4 inch with the clips parallel. It sound be fine on 1/2 inch.

Dear CVH, I checked to verify my memory, and I think the width of the jaws is wider than I originally intimated. It should have no trouble opening wide enough for 1/2 inch, but I still have reservations about its ability to effectively light bright enough. The nice thing about this lamp is that it would make a terrific light for reading, on a portable desk.

It opens up to about 7/8" - and I've used it on my grand piano music stand, it worked great.

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.

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.

This may be too much of a stretch. I have it on a stand 3/8 inch thick, and it is a stretch. And, I used it to light a Hammered Dulcimer, and it did not really cover the field as well as I'd liked. I eventually got a traditional Piano Light, with a flat, heavy base, and 2 40 Watt cylindrical bulbs. Works like a charm.

I just checked mine, and it opens to slightly more than three quarters of an inch so it should fit your music stand without a problem. The in interior of the clip is lined with a soft rubber substance that should keep it from scarring your piano.

I believe it opens about 3" so if your magnetic attachments and whatever it is you are trying to clamp is less than that I suppose so.

I measured mine and the clamp won't open to 1.5 inches. I looks like it can open to 1.25 inches maximum.

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.

Dave: Neck is 11 1/2 inches long. I doubt if you'll find anything to clamp it to on a piano except the music holder.

I've uploaded a photo of the clamp. It shows the size of the clamp and measures the opening. The clamping space is UP TO 1and 1/2 inches wide. If the thickness if the item falls within this measurement then you should be able to clamp it.. Just be sure to also account for the width of the bottom spacer

The phone side of the clamp fully opens to 3 1/8", however, for a practical matter, the clamping jaws are parallel at 2 1/2", so I wouldn't want to have a phone much larger than 2 1/2" wide

not completely sure i understand this gentelman's question but the metal clasp to the music back of the piano is approximately 5" in width.

A "C" clamp could if it can open at least 3 inches. I think the bar is 2.5" wide and 1.5" thick. I use the stand to mount two seperate led lights and I mount a c clamp each per side. The stand is built very well, money well spent, I bought 2.

i believe your concern is if the music stand is too thin. It isn't. The way the clips are designed, it actually clenches like claws. it'll even clinch a piece of tissue paper. and just in case anyone wants to know, the range is from 0 to maybe 5/8 inches.

The maximum width that I can get mine to go is 33 inches. I keep mine at 30 1/2 inches wide and it supports my 52 inch Yamaha electronic piano with perfect stability.

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.

Hello. The width of the metal clamp that attaches the lamp to your piano's music stand is approximately 5 3/8" in width. Thank you.

I'm not sure. I use it on my Android Maxx w/case on. I just measure the clips opening width, it opens 1 1/2". Hope that helps.

It is 4 inches square. The adjustable clamp varies from 2 1/2 inches to approx 4 inches fully extended. Hope this helps.

As you can see on the picture, the base of the lamp is a clip. It doesnot open up sufficiently to securely fasten on something thicker than about 1/4". I don't know where on the piano you can finc something to clip the lamp to. However, with a bit of ingenuity, you can always find a nice piece of metal that can be fastened on to the sheet music board which would then hold the lamp.

The clamp opens to 2 inches, and the material it cuts is 1 1/2 inch deep by 2 inches
