These clamps are strong. They feel like they will hold up. I’m happy with the purchase. As others have pointed out, they don’t open to 3” inside the jaws. I noticed while confirming this that the measurement outside the jaws while fully open is 3”. Obviously not the useful measurement for the tool, but also could just be a mistake(?)Second, the tips and grips do slide off. This is fixed cheaply, quickly and easily. Take the grip off. Put a drop of super glue in a spot similar to the picture. Slide the grip back on making sure to keep it from contacting the drop until it is about half on. Then let it drag the glue drop while you push it the rest of the way. Rub the area lightly to help it spread but not squish out. Repeat for the other 3 parts. I just did it. It took 10 minutes for the set of 12. Grips don’t budge now. I’ll update if they don’t hold up. Enjoy.

I got these to hold fabric to a batik frame. They are very difficult to open all the way unless you have very strong hands, but once they are on, they work beautifully. I now can batik and have these clamps, which are very large, hold my fabric in place. I do need help placing them because my hands are old and weak. I am happy with my purchase of these very strong clamps. If you are an artist these are for you but you may need assistance putting them on.

The only thing I dislike is the tips come off too easily, other than that they are great so far! They are used to hold sandwiched material together for quilting on a 6 ft. table so I don't have to get on my hands and knees on the floor! The table is a little wide at it's edges so the clamps need to open wide. Plastics breaks at the joints after a year so I went with metal this time! Hopefully these will last longer than a year!

I really like the strength of the clamps. The rubber tips and handle covers are nice but fall off easily. I didn’t have any superglue when I went camping but will definitely glue the tips that I was able to find on and see if that helps. Great buy for the price

These are great!Super grip

These clips are fantastic! Use to hold down tarp on my above ground pool (round) perfect fit on railings. So pleased with this purchase.

Original purpose was to use tarps on top of our Bimini covers for the boat. They have a great spring tinsion. The key switch went out in the boat! I had three grandsons in the boat with me. I raised the motor cover up and left the key in the run position. Then I took the rubber tips off of one of the clamps. Then I touched the clamp across the two nuts on the solenoid, and the boat started. We were pulling the grandsons on an innertube at Patoka Lake in Indiana! I continue to use this clamp the rest of the day to start the boat and it didn’t even affect the clamp! These are fantastic and I must have in the boat if you know where you’re solenoid is at. At least I did not have to have it towed. I love these clamps.

These clips are really good for the price, but the rubber tips on the ends (not on the handles) constantly fall off and are easy to loose.
