PONY 2-Pack 52 Wood Gluing Pipe Clamp Fixture for 1/2 Inch Black Pipe

If you go cheap on pipe clamps, you will likely end up with those that work but lack important features. While these cost a bit more than other models, you will see where the money went. These have sturdy feet that keep your work off the bench. I chose these for cutting boards and they work perfectly. They clamp strongly and I expect they will outlive me.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Own same type already

Pipe clamps are a good alternative to costly bar clamps. Just alternate clamps on top and bottom of your glue ups and don't over tighten. Too much clamping pressure will cause pipes to bow.

Excellent they work just great. So I just ordered 6 more

It was what was expected

Anyone who has ever needed a long wood clamp, knows this story. A 3 foot long clamp will cost around 40 bucks and will be made with a metal bar that bends when clamped. Finding a longer clamp is hard enough, but the expense just won't be worth it. So, I bought a ten foot length of black pipe for $24, with threads on each end. Used a cheap angle grinder to cut it in half, then ten seconds on a bench grinder rounded the sharp edges, with a rat-tail file to quickly finish the inside edges. The threaded ends screw right into the pipe clamp and the opposing piece slides on without hassle. Literally five minutes after I opened the box, I had two, 5-foot wood clamps, ready to go. And they are much more solid than anything you can buy on a store shelf. My only question is the metal coils that come in the kit. What are they for? Thanks, PONY!

I like these clamps and keep them on my work truck. These are small enough to pack away but handy for when I do need them.

Pony up woodworkers!These clamps are very well made and fit the 1/2 inch pipes I have.
