Bessey CM40 4x3 Malleable Iron Clamp Review

Using this workholding tool, our team found that it was incredibly durable and reliable. The clamping force is easily adjustable, making it a versatile option for any project. The malleable construction allows for a tight grip, ensuring the object being clamped stays in place. The only downside is that it can be a bit heavy for extended use. Overall, a fantastic addition to any workshop.

clamp looks strong for my light clamp. Well formed body. Good coverage. A synthetic lubricant has been added to the threads for smoother running and to prevent binding.

I have 2 small comments about these clamps that shouldn't put you off buying them. Clamps have small footprints, so they are more likely to dent the wood when clamped. The rounded shape of the clips means that if you keep them on a breadboard they will tend to fall off their pins unless you close the clips first, which is awkward, or use multiple pins, which I do. Apart from these small problems, they are perfect.
