One of the most widely used clamps in the USA is the [[Gomco ]] clamp. First, a cut is placed into the [[foreskin]], then the metal bell is placed over the [[Glans penis|glans]]. After that, the bell, together with the [[foreskin]], is pulled through the opening in the base plate and hung into the lever. By fastening the screw the lever pulls the bell upwards, jamming the [[foreskin]] between bell and base plate. After several minutes of clamping, the [[skin]] is cut off with a scalpel along the upper side of the base plate and the clamp removed.
