Each clamp features a shoulder bolt to stop the fastener from digging into the rail and a jaw sized for common inside-mount setups. Sold in a pack of six and manufactured in the USA, the G-16 is intended for many full-size trucks and mid-size platforms; however, verify the clamp dimensions against your tonneau cover or cargo rail before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I confirm the G-16 clamps will fit my tonneau cover?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMeasure the clamp opening and the standoff distance required by your cover.
