Editorial Review:
Upgrade your workbench clamps and get the largest clamping surface in the industry! Jaw depth is 4-1/8". Features non-marring composite resin jaw faces that provide even clamping pressure. Jaws also reverse as a spreader. Ergonomic handle has soft grip for added comfort and increased torque. With Slide-Glide trigger for fast, easy adjustments and rule measurement system for a consistent setup. Moveable end stop helps preset clamping capacity. The parallel clamp kit offered here includes two 24" parallel clamps, two 40" parallel clamps and one 4-pack of framing blocks, which are used to arrange 4 clamps in rectangular configuration.
These clamps from Jet may well be the best on the market today, combining the best features of some of our favorite brands. Infallible 90-degree clamping set-up with 1,000 pounds of pressure takes the worry out of glue-up and gives you reliable, accurate hold every time. We love the Precision-Rule Measurement System on the rails, because you get a fast, exact read on your opening, something all clamps ought to have. Another great feature is the deeper-than-usual throat and wider jaws for more workpiece contact and versatility you won't get with standard-style jaws. Jet's come up with a sweet Slide-Glide Trigger that locks the jaw in place, yet with a squeeze of the trigger, moves like a dream. The sliding end stop is convenient, too, in both clamping and spreading applications. Any downsides? Only if you don't like the substantial weight or the higher-end price, but you definitely get what you pay for. In the surprise department, we expected these burly clamps to take some strength to manipulate, but just the opposite: They're ergonomically perfect, engineered to make the mechanism do the work for you. Jet calls this large, soft-grip handle the SUMOGRIP, and we sure do like it because you don't have to be as strong as a sumo to put these clamps to work for you.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Pricepoint:
Great clamps for the price. You could get other brands, but these will do a great job for much less money. Plus the kit is very convienent.

After owning the Bessey clamps and using them for years, I was under the impression that they where the King of clamps. However, the Jet Clamps have put them to shame. When ever I go for glue up now, I reach for the Jet clamps. They are so much easier to use and the clamping pressure is excellent. I would highly recommend them.

Found this product at several places but Amazon.com had the best price, the best shipping and received the clamps soon after I order them. They worked well in the jig I made for a 16 inch Makita circular saw. Thank you to Amazon.com for an appreciated job well done.
excellent product and price:
these clamps are sturdy and well designed. they have many design perks including clamp head reversibility, ruler scales along the sides for repeatability, and end pieces to keep them level during use. my only complaint is that the clamp heads sometimes stick a little when trying to move them. i have not used the clamping jigs yet, but they look user friendly.
