Hold Down Clamp for T-Track, Drill Press & Workbenches | Hold Down Clamp – Secure Workpiece Holding – T-Track Clamp – Drill Press Compatible – Heavy-Duty Build

When setting up my shop, I knew I wanted a bunch of clamps & vises for holding my work in progress. I suppose the main reason is the little mis-hap I had trying to hold the work piece on a router clamped in a vise. The doctor would have given me stitches... if he had enough solid flesh to stitch to! So now, thanks to regeneration, I have 10 fingers again and clamp ALL my work to the table. These clamps, combined with the T-track embedded into your benchtop, are invaluable. Regular/quick clamps work great when your workpiece can be at the edge of the table, but now I have a way to hold the other side of the workpiece too! Padded ends grip the material well without marring it, and they easily adjust to accomodate different material thicknesses. The long, flat profile make them easy to keep out of the way of the tool.

I bought one of these Rockler clamps in 2010 for $9.99 Now one costs $20. There are other clamps like this on the market and generally you can get TWO for $20. It's a good clamp and I gave it all stars. But it is too expensive for my blood now.

The Rockler Deluxe Hold Down Clamp is a must-have accessory for any workshop...better still, get three or four. These simple, yet highly effective clamps work great on just about any T-track system. All of my T-tracks use 1/4"x20 bolts, so a quick swap out of the bolts and knobs and I was in business; I was aware of the need for hardware swap-out prior to purchase. The Rockler Deluxe Hold Down Clamp exerts more than enough pressure to keep the stock firmly in place, but the plastic tips prevent marring of the stock; to me this is a significant feature over other name brand hold down clamps. Not mentioned in the product description is the fact that the knob has a threaded brass insert for durability, as opposed to simple threaded plastic...that's a nice touch. These are perfect for holding stock in the INCRA MITEREXPRESS Miter Express . Again, you will need to replace the 5/16"x18 bolts and knobs with 1/4"x20 bolts and knobs. I can foresee eventual wear of the plastic tips (I am talking on the par of 5+ years of regular use), thus it would be nice if Rockler offered replacement tips for a nominal cost.

great addition to table

These work Great with my Sawstop.

Not sure what the deluxe part is as it is a simple, sturdy & dependable clamp. The tips have that rubber like stuff on it and it provide a super grip and does not mar the wood pieces I have used it for. I found it to be of good size for most of my needs.

handy easy to use clamp it is simple to use and has plenty of hold down pressure I would recommend tis to my friends

These are handy clamps. But I prefer these full size versions over the minis. My only comment is that they come with standard size T-Track "flange heads" to insert in the track. These are 5/16-18 threaded - same as the larger version. For my use I will need to add or make my own bolts with larger heads [threaded shaft with cut / threaded aluminum discs] but that's my problem. I thought of making my own [I make most of my items] but I am happy I ordered these at the price - saves me a lot of messing around and labor time [plus would still have to purchase the threaded handles + and I would have more money in them than ordering these and making my own T-Track "bolts" Nicely finished and good looking too.

Makes for quick changes for jig material. Very well designed.
