Ratings & Reviews for Jorgensen 30-in Cabinet Master 1500-lb Parallel Jaw Clamp

My Goto Clamp

Excellent clamping force, I like the new style handles they are very easy to grip and rotate. I have both the older ones with the maple handle and the new ones with the rubber grip. I like the parallel style clamp because it does a better job of applying the clamping force evenly without marring the workpiece. I literally have a wall of the from 24" to 48"

Super clamp!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought a few of these of different lengths for some cabinets I needed to build. These worked great! Much easier to square up compared to pipe clamps and made the job go considerably smoother.

Classic staple

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just realized that I have had these for probably 15 years now. They are a staple in any woodworking shop. To be honest I rest don’t put much thought into them. They just work every time that I reach for them. Pretty essential for any woodworking shop that uses glue.

best value

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve switched to Jorgensen clamps completely - I think they are the best quality/value combination I’ve found.

Handy and Rugged Clamps

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased two sizes of these clamps 2 years ago and have had nothing but great success with them. I have used them for panel glue ups, drawer squaring and as of late have been using them on their face to clamp up frame on bathometric maps that I build.

Excellent product

When I outfitted by new shop with bar clamps I chose 4 long clamps and 4 shorter ones. I like the large grips which fit my hands better (I have some arthritis issues) than other clamps.

Great Clamp

I have several of these and use them frequently. They are a great addition to any shop. Very parallel and helpful.

A smooth clamp to use

I bought these about 3 months ago. They are smooth and responsive. Good design and manufacturing. Thank you Jorgensen for a job well done

Wonderful Product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a flutemaker, I use a wide variety of clamps at various stages of my work. This clamp is head and shoulders above the rest for stability and clamping strength. If it has a drawback, it's the price, but it's worth it. I'm sure I'll never wear it out!

The best of the best

I have been using the pony brand for 40 years and have many clamps with their name on them and always buy the brand because I know it's the best of the best.

Best Cabinet/parallel clamp there is!

I now have multiple Jorgensen clamps. My favorite and mist use is the parallel cabinet clamps. Although used on cabinets, 90% of the time they are used on other wood projects. I love the utility, I love the strength I love the little to no deflection on longer glue ups. I especially love that they do not have the small grooves or notches for glue to get trapped in, or mushroom over making the sliding end of the clamp hard to move and position. Highly recommend and if I’m ever able to brea...

No movement in glue ups!

I bought 4 of these before the holiday rush of making cutting boards to help with my glue ups. These do not disappoint and I love that I can put thick panels in because the jaws are so tall.

Parallel clamps

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these clamps 10yrs. ago and love them. Being a cabinet installer for 40 yrs. I retired in 2012 and decided to build my own cabinets for my townhouse. In mission and arts and crafts I needed trustworthy tools. They're wonderful. Thank you

Awesome clamp

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought 4 clamps a few months and have used them on several projects. I need to buy more of these!

Best.clamps.Ever

Jorgensen are my go to clamps. Their ease of use exceeds the “red clamps” IMO. Love Jorgensen!!!

Well-designed, well-made, and well-used in my shop

I've used a lot of different parallel clamps in my shop, along with pipe clamps, bar clamps, and other options for clamping panels and other big glue-ups. The Pony Jorgensen Cabinet Master is by far my favorite. The innovative smooth bar design eliminates concerns about marring the surface with the notched bars other brands have, and it makes it much easier to clean the inevitable squeeze-out mess. These are my go-to when it's time for glue-up.

Best Woodworking Glueup Clamps there is.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had a bunch of the Cabinet Master Clamps for over 20 years. These are my go to clamps for almost all my glue ups. They are sturdy, and provide equal pressure along their face. Also, because the bar is smooth, it makes getting the glue off a lot easier.

Better than Bessey as they are easier to operate.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great clamps, no neede to push up and in as with a Bessey just turn the handle.

Improved ergonomics

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have the old wooden handled version of the Cabinet Master parallel jaw bar clamps and really love them. They are so much superior to the old bar clamps that I have used for the past 40 years. Glad to see that the handles have improved for better grip. You can't go wrong with Pony clamps, I have used and own many and they are top notch.

Excellent clamp

I use these clamps all the time on my projects. They are excellent, great investment.
