The clamps are very well made and completely adjustable. I used these in a table saw jig and I had no problems. Having a few of these around the shop will be a plus to any woodworker. They work great for jigs, bench top clamps and any other ideas you come up with. They are well made and should last for a long while. I should order some more.

This review goes along with another I wrote for a differant variation of these type clamps. For jigs, sleds, fences, hold downs on your chop saw, drill press, etc, etc, etc,..you will be hard pressed to find anything that works as well as these clamps. I've been using them for a few years now and still have only scratched the surface on uses for them.
Highly recommend.

Smeesh; products like these really need to include trivial details like the dimensions, so here they are:

Overall dimensions: 1-3/4" wide by 4-3/4" long by 5-1/2" high (with handle in vertical position).

Mounting holes: 1/4" diameter, spaced 3/4" by 1-1/4", total base footprint is 1-3/4" by 1-5/8".

Spindle clamping height: adjustable from 1/4" to -1/8" using the included hardware (you'll have to build a base adapter to clamp thicker materials).

Spindle (center) distance to edge of base: adjustable from 3/4" to 2-1/2".

Spindle contact size: 1/2" diameter.

Spindle tip is not replacable (it's fused to the spindle bolt).

Heavy duty construction (0.12" thick steel), riveted together.

Delivery is going to be hard to beat; I ordered mine on a Friday, it shipped Sunday (that's a good trick), and it arrived Monday via USPS.

Five stars for the product itself, but only one star for not including the dimensions.

This device does exactly what it is supposed to do. I use two of them to help hold the cargo door closed on a large trailer. One of the units had pieces missing when it was shipped, but a quick call to Amazon and they shipped out a replacement unit at no charge. Thanks, Amazon!

I use this to rip boards on my table saw. i secured the clamps to my home made jig which i made on my cnc router and it secures it in place during cutting.

I'm currently in the process of building radiator covers for my house. There are a bunch of pieces that require cut that are a little too close to the table saw blade for my liking, so I decided to make a jig. These clamps make the process really easy to clamp the wood, feed it through the saw, remove the cut piece and start again.

I highly recommend these clamps if you have a project where you need to make multiple copies of the same item such as this.

The toggles arrived in on time. There were three in the order howerver one of the toggles was incomplete and had only the leaver but not the screw and stop end was missing. The other two worked just fine. O well no one is perfect. I decided the other two made up for the company(seller) error. It is still a great product and highly recommend it for its purpose.

I ordered this item two months ago now. It said it was on backorder, but would ship within a month. It is now two months later and they say it won't ship until January. I would cancel, but I ordered this item with another tool and was able to use a discount code. This item was essentially free due to the discount. What's the point in cancelling if it is already paid for and I can't get any money back?!?!
