Answer This Question

A:  DO NOT BUY THIS. IT IS JUNK

by|May 6, 2023

    A:  I got mine to spread 21 inches. It is 18" between the pads, so the "spread" is 18 inches plus the width of the bars.

    Just like Lays, you can't get just one!
    You can't beat Bessey quality in clamps, and this one is no exception! I am an amateur woodworker and i have found these duoklamps to be one of the easiest clamps to work with. I make lots of picture frames and this 18" clamp fits in nicely. Its one-hand operation is smooth and easy to use. In my picture I demonstrate that this clamp is also at home in backyard construction, too. I had to fast en an upright made from a landscape timber to a 2x4 framework. The 1 3/4" throat worked very well. It grabbed the 2x4 and held the landscape timber firm until I was able to screw them together. It held firm enough that I had to use only one, yet it was easily loosened so i could adjust it so it was plumb. In essence, this is one of the easiest clamps to adjust and use, it has become my go-to clamp in most situations! Buy it, you won;t be disappointed!

    Nice Clamp For Any Project
    Overall this is a great clamp that is built to work well. Its well designed to be used as a clamp or a spreader. The first thing I tried with this clamp is to take two 1" thick x 6" wide x 12 long boards that were bowed about 1/2". I placed them face to face with the bow outward and see if this clamp would pull it together so it could be glued up and sure enough it worked and it did it with ease. This clamp is strong, it slides easily into position then clamps tight and positive. Turning the clamp into a spreader was as easy as moving the cushioning feet into the other side of the clamping feet and turning the dial to the spreading function. In this configuration the clamp works well in the first 12". Over 12" the bar starts to bow and apply force in a diagonal direction. Overall this is a great clamp and a good spreader. It clamps as hard as you can squeeze the handles and holds that force. The clamp releases just as easy as it tightens down. Love this clamp since it can be used with just one hand.

    Limited spreading functionality
    Nice clamp but it's use as a spreader is limited because the squeeze handle extends out almost as far as the clamping surface. Other Bessey clamps have an easy way to remove and reverse the stationary clamp end.
