Abstract: A rod clamp assembly including a first clamp member pivotally connected to a second clamp member, a handle pivotally connected to the first clamp member, and a lock bolt pivotally connected to the handle. The first and second clamp members each include a semi-cylindrical groove. A lock end of the lock bolt is configured to engage a receptacle of the second clamp member to pull the first and second clamp members together. An elongated portion of the handle is rotated to a locked position in which the first and second clamp members are secured together. A base of the handle, which engages the first clamp member, may include a notch for providing a quick close and quick open. Optionally, the rod clamp assembly includes a safety lock assembly, which engages the elongated portion of the handle to secure the handle in the locked position.
