The scaffold clamp of the present invention comprises a body portion, two pivotting latches attached on opposite sides of said body, two recessed sockets with each socket having a slot opening therein, and two fasteners with each fastener associated with one of said slots and passing therethrough. Each fastener includes a shank which slides through said recess with the shank having a captured wedge member on one side of the associated slot and a bolt head oversized relative to the slot and on an opposite side thereof. The fastener is captured on the body portion with the bolt head on one side of said slot and said wedge on the opposite side of said slot. The body portion includes on opposite sides thereof support recesses which cooperate with the associated latch to form a generally circular scaffold support engaging recess. The latch and wedge cooperate with the body portion to adjust the size of said circular engaging recess by movement of the wedge relative to the body portion. The body portion of the scaffold clamp is preferrably made by casting or drop forging for strength and durability.
