Customer Reviews:

Superb Bar Clamp [Posted on 2000-06-13]
Very stable clamp when used to glue up deep projects such as bookcases, cabinets and tall clocks. The aluminum body does not react with glues to create dark glue stains on the wood like what happens when an iron clamp contacts a glue joint squeeze out. One area of improvement - add the screw handle from the 3/4" pipe clamp or I-beam clamp.

Good Lightweight Clamp [Posted on 2001-03-10]
This is a good clamp but care must be exercised to avoid breaking it. There is only a lightweight rivet holding the forward jaw to the screw mechanism. When releasing pressure with this clamp you must gently tap the back side of the forward jaw as you unscrew to avoid breaking the rivet.

The clamp works well for situations where you want to stand the clamp on its back and lay the wood fully into the clamp. If you try to clamp with only the outside ends of the jaws it can be difficult to release the clamp.
