Following the update and renovation of almost all of Hejnar Photo clamps last November, it was also time for the most classic and best selling clamp of the Hejnar Photo line.
So Hejnar F362b with a 2.375" (6 cm) jaw length, was introduced with a little delay this year, two months after the other clamps and five years after its previous update Hejnar Photo Updated F62Ab Quick Release Clamp Review.

 |
| Updated curved front jaw and bubble level. |
While maintaining the high quality characteristics as the:
- Decimal scales on both jaws
- Safety stop relief grooves 2.6 mm deep.
- Tongue in pocket design of the moving jaw guides which guaranty a long term impeccable operation by not allowing dirt and grit entering the clamp interior.
The F362b features the black hard-anodized, one-piece, long aluminum knob as denoted by the "b" at the end of the model name. With the diamond pattern being a point of recognition on all Hejnar QR clamps.
The F362b could not escape the Hejnar Photo standard and is accompanied by an SS 1/4"-20 flat-head hex screw for mounting on ball heads or other devices and a 4mm Allen key.
