Description
Lampshade Sealing Jig
This simple yet highly effective jig helps you seal lampshade seams cleanly and consistently using your preferred adhesives or double-sided tape. Designed specifically for lampshade making, it delivers professional results with minimal effort.
- Clamp to a workbench for flexible use
- Screw down permanently for a fixed production setup
It works by sandwiching the lampshade seam between foam-lined jaws, applying strong, even pressure exactly where it’s needed.
Benefits
- Maximum, even pressure across the seam
- Holds the lampshade perfectly flat while adhesive cures
- Reduces lifting, gaps, and weak joints
- Produces a strong, consistent, professional-looking seam every time
- Foam-lined jaws protect inner and outer materials while ensuring a firm grip
By maintaining uniform pressure along the join, the jig helps create a permanent, reliable bond, regardless of the adhesive method used.
Adhesives
The sealing jig supports a wide range of adhesives, including:
- Super glues
- Very fast setting
- Require only a short time in the jig
- PVA and similar adhesives (Click here to view Adhesives)
- Slower curing
- Can be left clamped for extended periods to ensure a secure bond
The clamp removes the need to manually hold seams in place, freeing you up for other tasks while the adhesive sets.
Tessa Double-Sided Tape
Tesa double-sided tape is a pressure-sensitive adhesive, meaning it needs firm, even pressure to activate fully. (Click here to view Tapes)
- Applies maximum pressure directly to the seam
- The clamp pressure allows the adhesive to “wet out” and conform to the surfaces
- Sufficient clamp pressure will ensure maximum full strength of the bond
- Achieves excellent results with as little as a 30-second press for initial bonding
- Ensures consistent adhesion along the full seam length
How to Use
- Secure the jig to your work surface using a clamp or screws.
- Open the top jaw.
- Apply adhesive or tape to the lampshade seam.
- Place the seam centrally on the bottom jaw.
- Close the top jaw and secure the swing clamp.
- Allow sufficient time for the adhesive to set.
- Release the clamp and remove the lampshade.
Production
- Use multiple jigs in rotation for increased efficiency
- Seal one lampshade while another cures
- Ideal for small-batch and repeat production workflows
A practical tool for professional and semi-production environments, while remaining equally useful for crafters and hobbyists.
