Utilizing 30 years of engineering experience, Chicago Clamp Company was founded with the mission to create a new, safe, structurally-reliable, and economical standard for framing roof openings and supporting and distributing loads from joists. For decades, contractors have used traditional welding and cut-angle methods. These methods require certified welding which can be expensive, complicated, and hazardous; if done incorrectly it can compromise the integrity of the joist. To eliminate these inherent project risks, Chicago Clamp Company has developed three easy-to-install Clamp Systems. Each of these Chicago Clamp Systems® preserves the integrity of trusses and saves installation time and money.

Aramark Tube Framing Clamp System
"Aramark Uniform Services has used the Tube Framing Clamp System for providing the deck support on six different roof openings at our facility in Toledo, Ohio. Each set-up was easy to install and went up quicker than I expected. The fact that we did not have to weld your system in place was a main factor in our decision. It allowed for our operations to continue during construction with very limited interruption.

We have now ordered your system for two separate in-house projects and will certainly look forward to work with it again.
– William P Saba Sr., Aramark Uniform Services

The Bonazzoli Corp Tube Framing Clamp System
"We have used the Tube Clamp System on two jobs now and are getting ready to place our third order.  This product has substantially cut down the installation, layout and ordering time usually required to provide structural support for the mechanical systems we install. No prefabrication required. No drilling or welding required in the field. When I first saw the system I could see how good it would work for us. It is easily saving us 50% or more over previous costs.”
– Russell Geiger, TEMCO

The Bonazzoli Corp Tube Framing Clamp System
"The guys in the field, they loved that system and it went very well.  We would love to use that again some time.  I’ll put your name in my rolodex.”
– Jill Richter, Total Mechanical

The Bonazzoli Corp Tube Framing Clamp System
“We had no problems and we will recommend your system when we can.”
– Stan Haberski, Bonazzoli Corp.

The Bonazzoli Corp Tube Framing Clamp System
“Installation was a breeze and rooftop is in place. My people really liked the quality of your product and made sure to let me know that they prefer this method of support in lieu of all that goes into welding, fire watch, tarp protection and such.”
– Brian Crispin, All Seasons Mechanical

The Bonazzoli Corp Channel Framing Clamp System
“Ordering and timely delivery were great on my end.  It’s a great product and we will use it again when we have a similar situation on the job site. Thanks again.”
– William Galligan, Amaral Associates
