Jorgensen24-inch Bar Clamps, 90°Cabinet Master Parallel Jaw Bar Clamp Set, 2-pack

I keep buying more of these as the projects grow. They're expensive, but worth it for strength, rigidity, parallelism of the jaw and general quality. Pipe clamps just don't compare.

I only wished I had bought these a long time ago. They have come in very handy for almost every woodworking project requiring clamping. The clamps are easy to use. Clamping and releasing are quick and easy movements.

Great quality. Durable and easy to use

I purchased these clamps as part of a large and complicated workbench project. (I had resisted the temptation to buy them sooner because this style of clamp is a bit pricey.) They performed perfectly and made a stressful glue up very manageable. The bars are stiff and did not flex much at all, even under a lot of pressure. The grips are comfortable and provide a firm grasp.One feature I really appreciate is the smooth bar design. This design makes it very easy to clean in the event that glue drips on the bar. Other parallel clamps have ridged bars that can accumulate glue and make it very difficult to clean.While relatively expensive, these clamps perform tasks where others cannot. With large glue ups, these are essential. They will not replace other clamps for lighter jobs. In fact, I will probably use my f-style clamps 90% of the time, but am so glad to have these when the need arises.

Excellent~

These “K”-clamps are the traditional glue up clamp you see in every workshop. They work well but have a couple of significant drawbacks I hadn’t considered before. First of all they’re heavy and if you have a glue up with 4 or more of these clamps in use you might need help if you have to move the assembly. Secondly, the bars tend to leave black spots from the reaction with the glue, so you’ll need to place tape over the bar to minimize that.I do like that they stand up vertically so you can set a small panel or door against the wall while waiting for the glue to dry (see the weight comment above). They are well made and seem like they’ll last a while, but I will be looking for lighter options (e.g. aluminum bar clamps) for my next purchase,

Jorgensen is always quality a product.

I have spent a lifetime working with wood and these are the best clamps I have ever owned, for all those persons who work with wood you know no one clamp works for every situation but when gluing strips these are the best I have found and plan on purchasing more in different sizes
