Release requires a lot of pressure

it works well, but not as good as the older model I own. The release requires a lot of pressure, sometimes requiring two hands. It’s also a bit expensive. The pads secure better and aren’t likely to slide off.

Irwin may be loosing it on quality control.

Have used these clamps for years in a professional working environment and have been quite happy - until after I bought these new ones. On the first job, both of them kept coming apart at the ends (which has happened after years of use). Suspect the end latch engineering and/or manufacturing has cut back some .0005 materials cost (which, of course, translates to thousands of $ manufacturing millions of units).

Strong grip with little effort

Would Recommend

This clamp holds your project materials in place so you can install fasteners or adhesive. The best part is they don’t require a gorilla’s grip to get the holding power.
