A centric clamping device, which contains a main body, two clamping jaws, guided so they can be displaced on the main body, and an adjusting spindle, supported by a spindle bearing so that it can rotate on the main body for the opposing adjustment of the two clamping jaws. A high-precision spindle bearing, optimally protected against soiling, is attained in that the spindle bearing is located in a bearing block and two bearing sleeves, which can be adjusted axially within the bearing block.
