I love those clamps. $5 apiece is a good price for a quality, one-handed clamp. I must have at least 16, if not 20 of them lying around my shop and on the wall. They're my "Go to" clamp, the one I reach for first.

I've gushed about these before. Often they're 2 for $20 so pick up a pack or two of these while they have the deal.

I like them for quick clamping needs. You can basically use them one handed.
I use them often to clamp two parts together to drill identical holes in both.
Not the strongest clamps, but they are very strong for their size.
This is a good deal if you need them.
I have about 6 or 8 of these.

Made a mistake. Actually it's 6 clamps. Even better deal.

I am soooo going to go by Lowes at Lunch tomorrow... I hope they have at least 3 of those packages!

Which size clamps are these? The link comes up "404" for me.

Looks like 2 of each 4 1/4", 6" and 12" Pretty darn good deal! I notice they say light duty, clamping pressure of 100lbs, seems like that would be good for most good joints. Anything requiring "assembly pressure" would probably want a bigger clamp anyway. Thanks Jussi, good find!

yeah, the 6 & 12" clamps are the minis and the 4-1/4" are the micros.
The ones I have in abundance are the 6" minis, a very useful size.

Price is great. Very handy clamps. Clamping pressure for good fitting joints shouldn't be excessive. Making a fit should not be by forcing the joint into submission.

I love them too. I probably have a couple dozen, mostly all 6" and two 12's.

I might pick up a couple more of these sets...

Thanks for this. At the nearest Lowes I only managed to find one set and in a random location. After getting home I remembered that there's a 2nd Lowes in town so I think I'll try to hit them up tomorrow. My wife has claimed some of my old ones that she uses when working on her quilting projects so I need more.

I bought 2 sets online for store pick-up...that way THEY have to find them. And, it'll be a few days before i can get to the store (about 15 miles, and i've got strep throat) so i wanted to lock in the price. Got my extra 5% off for using their card too.

Thanks for the lead Jussi.

Thanks for the heads up. I've been replacing the HF clamps I bought years ago and these put another dent in the process.

[LCHIEN]

I couldn't resist. I picked up a set for the 12 inchers I don't have in the mini size.

Thanks for the heads up!

Picked up two sets yesterday, thought about more because they had about 20 sets there. This is like a HF price.
