Ratings & Reviews for BORA 50-in Wtx 150-lb Bar Clamp

Bora Clamp

Little hard to set the moveable part of the clamp, works first time. For repeated use it moves back.

Incomplete set available for the tool

The tool itself is a good tool. My comment and rating Is in regards to the other options and assessories available for the Bora tool. They simply are not available unless you jump through many hoops to get there.

Over priced tool aint that great

Bought this to do significant amount of shweting work. Tool is clumsy, does not clamp and the case is a complete joke. Ended up using a sheet rock square and a pencil and was way better off. Dont waste your money on rhis

Bora clamp

This works great as a saw guide if you use clamps on both ends to hold it in place. The factory clamp just doesn’t work, keeps slipping. $35 for nothing more than a straight edge——never again!!

Big expectations...but

I had big expectations for this unit. I was glad to find something that could cut the lenght of a sheet of plywood (I got the 100” model). Two problems, one huge and one not so much. The not so much problem is that this tool barely fits in its bag. Im glad they offer a way to carry it but its a challenge to get in the bag. Now the more important issue. The track bows when you push against it. If you use it as a guide rail its not sturdy enough in the middle to stop deflection of the rail ...

BORA 2.25-in Clamp

Great product. Works as expected. Used with circular saw and jig saw. Great tool accessory.

Holds tight

I was worried about slippage but I didn't have to. Easy to operate but a little tight when trying to release the far end clamp(but that's better than moving around while cutting a $50 piece of plywood.) Wish I'd have bought one sooner.

Cross cut clamp

Tension clamp is poor quality.

Great Product

This clamp worked great! Having read other reviews where they stated that it did not stay clamped was most likely due to the users not following directions. One thing that is essential, is that when the locking lever is engaged, you have to push it all the way down, not just until you feel resistance.

waste of money

under 12" and you may get a strait cut , but after you see a longer cut is not strait and put a level against it on both sides , mine was not strait , both sides going in , which says defective way it is made it is ok for a smooth cut , but not a precise strait cut , such as cabinets ....get Lowes to cut it , there saw in store is pretty good

Good

The only issue would be how the secondary pad Lots in place allows for a little bit of Slack after you adjust it not as tight as I would like

The idea is great but the product is not effective

As an avid wood worker I had bought this product to use as a guide when I needs to cut thing away from my table saw. Have tried on multiple projects not only has it costed me hundreds of dollars it just doesn't work. If doesn't create a secure lock and therefore shift during cutting rendering it wall art and not a functional piece of equipment.

Straight Cuts

This Bora clamp, with its extension, is great for making straight rip cuts with a circular saw on the long side of a 4 X 8 sheet of plywood, easier than using my table saw. I also have shorter Bora clamps for cross-cutting on plywood. Highly recommend Bora clamps.

Bora clamp

Works great. Used it as a guide to break down sheet goods.

Pretty useful!

It certainly works as intended, and it's a bargain at the price. The movable jaw does tend to get stuck a bit more than I like, but that is a minor inconvenience. Yes, I recommend it.

Good Idea

This product is a good idea but it's execution leaves some to be desired. It can be tough to get this to clamp tight and can be even tougher to clamp this tight while remaining square and true. Overall, it's a good product for home and DIY use.

Bora Clamp

Clamp is easy to use. You will need to use a square to check clamp if you want your cut square. Nice to have when using a circular saw.

Worst. Product. Ever.

Won't stay clamped in place, always sliding or falling off, even when the "clamps" are fully engaged. Worst waste of $40 ever. So unreliable, you'd be better off free-handing it.
