Amazon.com Review
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
