Renzetti Traveler C -Clamp Vise Right Handed
Renzetti Traveler C -Clamp Vise Right Handed is the right-handed, C-clamp version of the Traveler 2200 series, identified by the manufacturer as C2202-R. Its head is mounted on a table clamp, while the aluminum components have an anodized finish. The True Rotary design allows the hook shank to be positioned on the rotational axis, so the fly remains in one plane as it turns through 360°. This makes it easier to apply wire, tinsel, chenille, and hackle in even turns, as well as inspect the underside of a pattern without removing the hook. A rotary tension screw lets you adjust the movement to the task, from freer rotation while winding materials to more controlled positioning when attaching individual components.
The standard cam jaws accept hooks from #28 to 4/0, allowing the same vise to handle small-hook patterns as well as substantially larger streamers. The jaw opening is first adjusted to suit the hook-wire diameter, after which the cam lever provides the final clamping action. This mechanism is particularly useful when tying a sequence of flies on identical hooks: once correctly set, the jaws can be released and closed again without starting the adjustment from scratch. The jaws have a black oxide finish, and a polyurethane O-ring supports durable, repeatable operation. Whenever the hook size or wire diameter changes, reset the opening and check the hold before tying rather than applying excessive force to the lever.
The black powder-coated C-clamp is paired with an 8-inch stem and fits worktops with an available thickness from 3/4 to 2-1/2 inches. Before choosing a tying position, check the thickness of the top together with the amount of free edge and the clearance underneath for the clamp screw. Once mounted, the vise occupies little usable bench space and provides a stable connection when tying under greater thread tension. An adjustable bobbin cradle is included and keeps the thread clear of the rotating fly during rotary work. This model is configured for right-handed operation; before purchase, confirm that this head and control arrangement matches your usual tying orientation.
