JORGENSEN E-Z Hold 2-Pack 12" 300LBS Load Indicator Woodworking Bar Clamps

These clamps are a slight upgrade from the cheap plastic cast quick-clamps I usually purchase. Slightly pricier, significantly superior, but ultimately still plastic. Cast iron bodies still have their place when clamp force is high and jaw deflection is unacceptable. For my current needs, this plastic is perfect. Good clamping force, modest deflection, and a pliable mechanism. Most importantly, no slipping along the slide. I'm very pleased after 6 months of weekend use. The signature ability to attach clamps end-to-end for purposes of extension turned out to be more useful and more usable than expected, and their build quality and clamping force are commendable. If I have any criticism, it is that they are a little bulkier than I expected. The clamp heads are perhaps a half inch larger in all dimensions than comparable cheap-o clamps, so there is a drawer that simply doesn't hold these clamps where it did hold others. Hopefully that bulk adds durability. Beyond that... I like their build feel, unique features, and effectiveness very much. Great clamps.

Heavy duty. Great purchase

Great quality clamps

Jorgensen clamps are better than most in my opinion. The bar clamps work perfectly for my applications. They allow quick and easy clamping with one-hand operation.

strong, tough and great tools

I really like these! Comfortable sure grip and reversible to use as a spreader. Just wish they weren’t so expensive!

These clamps are easy to use and pretty sturdy. I found the clamping pads, which are plastic, to be a little off flush but not enough to hinder clamping. The added feature of having a pressure guage showing pounds of clamp pressure is nice but not tightly accurate at all. The clamps are versatile by being able to combine clamps to stretch out into a longer clamp without losing sturdiness. They are a little heavy. Overall quality clamps.

Best clamps a at good price. I would highly recommend these.
