 Great at this price Jan 28, 2008
For gluing up case-work these clamps are a great deal. They do the job well, the price is low enough to afford enough of these to handle the entire case and they are light enough to move around easily during the glue-up phase. For glue-ups, the object is not to squeeze all the glue out of the joint, but simply to hold the pieces firmly together while the glue sets. For case-work, this does not require a lot of pressure. If you are steam bending or gluing up bent laminates, the heavy-duty version would be a better choice. But you pay for what you get.

Best buy in clamps Aug 04, 2001
These clamps can be used for almost anything and they are my favorite for edge gluing just lay them on their side and alternate them one above and one below tightening them up two at a time. I can get some really nice glue ups with them. The 24 being my favorite size. Their less money than the others so it's easier to buy a lot of them. But I also like bessy tradesmen and have found the 4 by 8 to be very handy. My pipe clamps now are collecting dust and I only use them when I need a really long clamp.

Good Enough! Dec 12, 2000
I disagree with...negative review on this product. These clamps are strong enough for most lightweight to medium duty work. Use pipe clamp if you need heavy duty work. This is a lightweight clamp and is much easier to use compared to heavy pipe clamps. Every tool has its limitation. I am happy with my purchase....

 Narrower Bar = Weaker Clamp Oct 02, 2000
Of course, you get what you pay for, but the Bessey version of this clamp (at about $3 more) has a much larger bar and can apply a great deal more pressure. The bar on this clamp bends considerably, but if you are doing primarily light clamping it should not be a problem. I've used this clamp (among others) for several years without permanently bending the bar.

 Wouldn't recommend this to anyone. Jul 06, 2000
I generally do a lot of research and digging before I make a tool purchase. This has allowed me to build a collection of tools which I am extremely happy with. This clamp is the exception. I bought a pair of these based on the makers name and price. I shouldn't have. The "bar" on these bar clamps is flimsy. I bent one of mine the very first time I used it. I would never buy another one of these.
