- A clamper is an electronic circuit that prevents a signal from exceeding a certain defined magnitude by shifting its DC value. The clamper does not restrict the peak-to-peak excursion of the signal, but moves it up or down by a fixed value. ...
- A clamp is a fastening device to hold or secure objects tightly together to prevent movement or separation through the application of inward pressure. ...
- An A-clamp or yoke is a type of clamp very often used to make a pressure-tight high-pressure fastening in scuba gear. ...

- (Clamping (graphics)) In computer graphics, clamping is the process of limiting a position to an area. Unlike wrapping, clamping merely moves the point to the nearest available value. ...
- A brace, band, or clasp for strengthening or holding things together; To fasten in place or together with (or as if with) a clamp; To hold or grip tightly; To modify a numeric value so it lies within a specific range
- (Clamping) Occurs when a defending player places the head of his/her stick over the top of an offensive player’s stick.
- (Clamping (DC)) The circuit or process that restores the DC component of a signal. A video clamp circuit, usually triggered by horizontal synchronizing pulses, re-establishes a fixed DC reference level for the video signal. ...
- (Clamping) An Extreme Uli performed using a cable clamp rather than a hose clamp.
- (Clamping) On the face-off, a player pushes the back of his stick down on the ball in the attempt to gain control of it.
- (Clamping) The process of restoring a DC reference level which was removed to make an AC coupled signal. Without a known DC reference level, a video waveform can't be digitized correctly.
- (Clamping) using mechanical devices for shaping trunks and branches.
- Clamping occurs when the baby controls the flow of milk by closing his gums on the nipple. Some babies do a clampdown bite, which can be painful and interfere with nursing. ...
- (CLAMPS) Thick planks on the inside of vessels, to support the ends of beams. Also, crooked plates of iron fore-locked upon the trunnions of cannon. Any plate of iron made to turn, open, and shut so as to confine a spar or boom, as, a studdingsail boom, or a boat's mast.
- (Clamps (Cramps, Hold-fasts)) Screw devices used for holding veneer and marquetry assemblies while they are being glued down onto the base or ground wood. They are also called G-clamps, C-clamps, strap clamps and so on. ...
