Silverline 250108 Mini Clamps 2pk 100 mm

I've got two young kids who are ALWAYS breaking things. Half of my house is either broken, or sitting under my workbench waiting to get glued back together. When the breakages got complicated (like wooden train tracks, or boxes), I realised I needed to try and keep the halves together to glue them.That's when I went to B&Q and bought some of their little G-Clamps. It was awesome.. I clamped around a piece of wood, squeezed tight, and PYOING! off flew the head, embedding itself into a soft toy that I'd almost finished sewing back together after Kid #2 had decided it needed more holes.So I tried the next G-Clamp, only to realise I'd bought one with the little rubber foot missing, and without it, the clamp was useless. The third G-clamp was better, but it died after a few weeks when the hex nut holding it together fell out and I lost it.. :-/So, I went on Amazon and found these instead. Externally similar to the cheapo ones at B&Q these are actually FAR more sturdy. The central bar which runs through the clamp is relatively thick and strong, I can't bend it. The clamp jaws are also strong, and although they're plastic, you can see they're reinforced by buttresses and I-beam like reinforcements to stop them snapping.The trigger and release mechanism works MUCH better than the cheaper ones, making it really easy to clamp and unclamp complex shapes one-handed while you're working.The fact you get TWO clamps was a lovely surprise. I didn't think you could get two clamps this cheap, and (being a doofus) I ordered two packs, and was surprised to recieve 4 clamps in total). Well, I'm glad I got 4 clamps, since having that many has allowed me to repair many cardboard / wood / metal projects.The only gripe I have is that the blue 'socks' on the jaws to give them some cushion can slip off if you're gripping something with an odd shape, but that happens very rarely.Great grips, great for fixing things. pleasantly surprised.These are pretty darn good.

Nice little tools but a little cheap product and can only apply light pressure

ideal small clamps for small or medium work

Good mini clamps not as strong as I would like. Good for clamping together objects but didn't work so well when using with kreg to hold wood still to drill. Already managed to break one tried to tighten to muchWas very easy to use and great quick release

These are brilliant clamps - for their intended purpose. Some people complain they are tiny, yet all the the measurement are clearly stated in the advert. Others claim they are weak with little grip, well what do they expect of a clamp advertised as 'Suitable for light-duty jobs' and 'Ideal for crafts and smaller projects'. These clamps are intended for model making and for this purpose they are excellent and very good value. I have several pairs and wouldn't be without them. I do honestly wonder whether some people bother to properly read the details of a product or to consider what they expect it to accomplish before they buy it.

Ideal small clamps for what I need very strong and steady. I do a lot of model building so need theses as they are small but hold firm..

Made of poor plastic parts, not recommended.

First one Broke within first few minutes of use.Second one now stuck away in old (unlikely to use) toolbox.

Super

Cumplen con su función de sujetar a la perfección, son simples, ligeros y de calidad. Perfectos para trabajos en objetos de tamaño reducido

E' chiaro che quelli che si lamentano per la pessima resistenza del prodotto li hanno usati pretendendo delle performance non adatte al prodotto, vanno benissimo per i piccoli incollaggi, dato che sono di piccole dimensioni , io li sto usando per alcuni lavori che eseguo con la pelle è posso garantire che funzionano benissimo e son ben fatti, quindi se non dovete lavorare con grandi formati e oggetti pesanti sono perfetti , li consiglio molto.

Quality little pieces. well built and well tooled. Great for model making (kits).

Utilisables avec une seule main, ces presses vous seront utiles pour les collages de précision. Légères et maniables, vous ne pourrez plus vous en passer. Je vous conseille d'acheter 2 lots pour encoller 4 coins en même temps et de les prendre de différentes longueurs pour avoir des débattements différents. Par exemple 100 et 300 mm. Utile quand les épaisseurs ne sont pas identiques !
