Tools and Hardware Reviews of Bessey TG5.512 5-1/2-by-12-Inch Heavy Duty Tradesmen Bar Clamp

Customer Review: Tough enough to get the job done, and then some
Summary: 5 Stars

This Bessy 5 1/2" deep heavy duty clamp is tough enough to get the job done. The sturdy metal rail is notched on the narrow edges to provide powerful clamping action. The metal stationary end of the clamp can endure the pressure of a tight clamping. The movable metal clamp end easily moves along the rail until set into place by locking the location into the metal rail's notches. Once locked into place the screw lever allows one to get the clamp tightly into place. Being made of sturdy metal, this clamp is sure to do its job without failure. The design of this clamp does make it heavy, but not to a point where the average person cannot handle it comfortably. If you are looking for a clamp that will get the job done and last for years, the Bessy heavy duty clamps are a sure bet.

PROS:
Made of sturdy metal
Excellent design and quality
Worth the expense

CONS:
I didn't buy more
