Great clamp but pads *do* stain [Posted on 2005-08-03]
I bought a couple of these from amazon about a year ago. Service was great and I've used them many times. the 3" reach is nice and the clamping force is excellent.
Only small issue with these is you have to keep some scraps of wood around to use as clamp pads, the plastic ones definitely stain whatever they touch. Don't clamp them directly to your work unless you are going to paint it and don't care if it gets stained.
Good clamps but plastic pads stain the work [Posted on 2006-06-20]
I bought my clamps in December of 2005 and the oily plastic pad problem has not been fixed. The clamps are very nice otherwise. Just remember to protect your work from direct contact with the plastic pads.
The Standard Bar Clamp [Posted on 2006-08-05]
There is nothing more to say about Jorgensen bar clamps but do not just take my word and try one and you will see for yourself. They are the sturdiest and heavier clamps on the market. Simply excellent. My only complaint is that their wood handles could be at least a half inch larger in lenght but do not let it intimidate you. Best Buy.
Great clamp. Threads too course [Posted on 2006-10-24]
I bought a few of these clamps the other day. I removed the plastic pads immediately because I use separate scrap wood to prevent damage. I figured the plastic pads would not protect from the clamp digging into my work. I do not like the course threads as compared to the light duty 3712s. I can not get as tight of bond as I can with the light duty 3712s. Other than that, a great clamp.
Too bulky [Posted on 2007-02-01]
I would not buy these again. They are to awkward and hard to tighten. Although they are very strong, they are just not easy to work with
