reclamping
Tightening the grip
Reclamping is the act of clamping something again—reattaching or readjusting a clamp that was removed or loosened.
The term appears in surgical contexts, where a blood vessel or tissue may need to be reclamped during a procedure: The surgeon had to reclamp the artery after the first clamp slipped.
It also applies to woodworking, plumbing, or any work requiring secured fixtures.
