Because Strippit has No Engineering Discipline,
There are Several Variations & Sub-Variations of this Same Basic Workclamp!
Note! Some Workclamps use All Inch Screws & Bolts, Some use Metric Screws & Bolts, and Many are a Mix of Both Inch & Metric Screws & Bolts!
When Ordering Repair Parts, Find-Out if the Part You Need is Inch or Metric!!!
The 2 Main Variations are the "R-Type" and "H-Type".
Heavy Machined-Base of the Clamps are a Bit-Different, with No-Punch Vanes Mounted on Top of some Clamps, and on the Bottom of other Clamps.
The 5 Main Repair Parts; #5 Upper-Jaw, #8 Lower-Jaw,
#17 Clamp-Body, #10 Dowel-Pin, #2 Air-Cylinder
are used Over & Over Again, and are the Same on All of these Workclamps.
Above is Diagram of a Typical R & H WorkClamp.

#120531-Mod Later-Type, Back of Body to Center of Rear Holes is about 1.793"

And, For Strippit to Further Confuse Their Customers,
Some Strippit Clamp Bodies were Drilled & Tapped for Inch Screws,
Some Strippit Clamp Bodies were Drilled & Tapped for Metric Screws.
All Our Clamp Bodies ( Both #120531-000 & #120531-Mod )
are All Drilled & Tapped for Inch Screws Only!
Four 8-32 Holes for Lower Jaw & Four 10-32 Holes for Height-Adjusters.

Please Note!!!
All of Strippit's Early Workclamps used Inch-Threads
on All Bolts & Screws & Tapped-Holes.
Later-On, Strippit Gradually Switched-Over to the Metric System.
Some Strippit Workclamps use a Mix of Both Inch & Metric Screws & Bolts!
Now All Original Equipment Strippit Workclamps use only
Metric-Threads on All Bolts & Screws & Tapped-Holes.
All Workclamps Parts that We, The Machine Technologies Co. Furnish,
will have Inch-Threads on All Bolts & Screws & Tapped-Holes.
If You Specify Metric at Time of Your Workclamp Parts Order,
we can Supply Metric-Threads on Bolts & Screws, but any
Tapped-Holes on Parts, Like Workclamp Bodies, will Still be Inch-Threads.
