BESSEY TG4.008+2K Clamp, woodworking, F-style, 2K handle, replaceable pads, 4 In. x 8 In., 880 lb

Bessel is known for quality. I expect these to last the rest of my life and be passed on to someone else. They do grip very well.

These are top quality, well-made clamps. Very good clamping power and the handles are far superior to the wooden ones. Not exactly cheap, but they don't feel cheap when you're using them either. When buying an item that I will use frequently, and expect to last a long time, I try to buy the best quality that I can afford. I'm pleased with my choice here.

These are fabulous well made clamps. They are strong and very easy to use and adjust and don’t slip. I want to have this type of clamp in many lengths. I prefer them to all other types for general woodworking, even if they need cauls. They are made in Germany and I prefer German woodworking tools. I bought these to be the two main clamps to clamp boards and things to my workbench while I work on them. I have started to like these 2K handles from German manufacturers. I have mostly wooden handles on my tools. But I really like the 2K handles. I think they are a great buy in this size. I also like they have a small lug on the top that lets them stand upside down on a flat surface and not tip. Great clamp.

It weights 6.0 pounds, not 0.37 pounds. Too heavy for my light wood I was trying to use it on. Otherwise a great strong clamp.

Quality just as you'd expect.
