Clamp is a robot type that focuses its efforts on grabbing, holding and controlling its opponent in battle.
The Clamp is either used as a method of offense such as overturning (vertical clamp) or moving into arena hazards/ pits/ out of play, or used as a method of holding an opponent in one place as a means of bringing other weapons into play, either as part of the clamp itself or as a separate weapon.

- Fight or Flight - Vertical Clamp (first known DSL Clamp robot)

- Little Metal Friend - Horizontal servo Clamp in theory, but the AI bindings were changed.
