Excellent Quality Tool That Delivers

Based on our own experience, this fixturing clamp's material and construction is top-notch! We've been using it for a while now and it hasn't failed us yet. It's perfect for industrial and scientific applications, providing accuracy and precision. The only downside is that it's a bit pricey but in our opinion, it's worth the investment for a reliable and long-lasting tool.

Pros
  • High precision and accuracy for toolmaking and inspection
Cons
  • Requires specialized knowledge and experience to use effectively

Starrett, one of the best hand tools in the world

Sturdy, easy to use, ideal for machining. By using the crossbar in the adjustment screws you can create a LARGE holding force. Well made, feels good in the hand.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Available in white only

Just a clamp!

This is either a plagiarism or an error but only one clip is supplied although 2 are pictured and two MUST be included in this price. The Starrett website lists them for $44 a pair! As always, Revain is very good about returns, but they claim the price is right at $41 apiece.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Out of fashion
