I got a CNC machine that has T track slots. This device makes clamping work product simple and fast. It also works on my other T track as well. Uses a standard 5/16th thread T bolt of which I have in different lengths. Very versatile tool and very welcome addition to my CNC machine.

These auto clamps work fantastic. No more constantly adjusting the clamp to hold my work. I use my plainer a lot and every time I plain a board it's enough to have to adjust the clamps for the next process. These easily go from 1/4 to 3/4 inch stock with no issues. Have not tried a 2x4 yet

I bought this for a woodworking sled that I was building. Meant to go on a Kreg track on top of the back of the sled. The leg is short - REALLY short, and I didn't clue into that. Also, I might be a little slow, but it is hard to set it up for clamping down on stuff - it moves a lot. So, buyer beware, and make sure you CLOSELY measure things up (I didn't - so now have an expensive hold down that I am looking for a use for....)

A very clever clamp that automatically adjust to the size of the item. I fitted them to t-bolt anchors, which gives me the flexibility to move them where I want. I even bought a second one.

Received an open box item with TWO broken parts before I even used it. The knob was stuck even with the t-bolt removed and the tiny connecting rod between the lever arm and the clamp body was busted. I expect to do the same to the one clamp I received that is ok, as I do not understand how such a tiny part can provide 50lbs of clamping force, let alone the upper load rating of 250lbs. This product is under built overpriced garbage. My first Armour tools purchase and probably my last.UPDATE: This product is falsely listed in the sellers description to be 25-250 lbs but is actually 25-150 lbs per the product packaging.

The "T" bolt is too short ; it was hanging on by 2 threads.I switch them for one inch "T" bolts. Problem solved.

First off, let me say that I reached out to Armor Tool in regards to this piece because as a fairly new CNC owner, I wanted to find/use clamps that would suit my needs when it comes to making projects. Not only did they respond to me quickly- they also provided extra information on what would work best in my situation.I'll be buying a few more of this bad boys. They work GREAT and their hold is amazeballs.

Doesn't get much use anymore. While side pressure does hold well there is too much vertical play without downward force. Big and bulky. There are better ways to secure material. Well built just not what I had hoped for.

The "T" bolt is so small it wont work on any of the four shop tools with T tracks that I have. Porter Drill Press-nope. Router table-nope. Dewalt Table Saw-nope. Belt/drum sander-nope.I have never seen a T track small enough for this to work. Maybe jeweler bench? Fly tying?The T bolt extends 1/8" below the table surface.Even if one had a minature table, there is another problem. The T-bold turns so freely that its difficult to line it up in the track.

These are good T-Track inline (horizontal in most applications) clamps. I was unfamiliar with Armor-Tool, but am pleasantly surprised by the quality. These work on the same principle as benchdog clamps (like the Festool clamps for MFT tables) but operate in a 5/16" T-Track instead. They are not as useful for my purposes as the benchdog clamps or the Armor-Tool vertical hold down T-Track clamps, but they do come in very hand once in awhile. NOTE: these are have wider T-Track pads than 1/4" (and slightly narrower than 5/16") so you may have to take a few swipes of a hand file to get them to slide smoothly in 1/4" T-Tracks. The bolt is easily removed so this presents no difficulty. n.b., these appear to be the same as the Rockler clamps exc. for color (even price is the same).
