A tonneau cover clamp is provided for clamping a tonneau cover to a rail of a vehicle. The rail of the vehicle has a downwardly facing flange and an outwardly facing flange. The tonneau cover clamp includes a bracket, a clamp arm, a handle and a clamp member. The bracket is coupled to a transverse frame member of the tonneau cover. The handle and clamp member are collectively rotatably coupled to the clamp arm. The clamp member has an upward cam and a side cam integrally formed thereon. The clamp member is configured to engage the rail upon rotation of the handle such that concurrently (i) the upward cam slidably engages the downwardly facing flange to urge the tonneau cover downwardly and (ii) the side cam slidably engages the outwardly facing flange to urge the tonneau cover outwardly.
