Auto-Adjust Workbench Clamp - Horizontal Dog Clamp with 7.5" Spiral Aluminum Peg & 360 Degree Rotation - P7-HH

It works extremely well. I had the old style bench dogs and I don’t use them nearly as much now that I have this new tool. It seems sturdy after a couple months of use, very easy to use, clamps projects tightly and gently and has a short learning curve. I’m very pleased.

This clamp works awesome on my old Work Bench.

I’ve been using the hold down clamps for a few weeks now and love them. I make a lot of home decor pieces that are small and sometimes make the mistake of using my hands to hold things to together when gluing and nailing up. With these clamps now, I won’t have anymore close calls with the nail gun. Super easy to assemble, use and compliment my Armor Tools Doghole Table which has also provide and great even, sturdy, and level work area to assemble and build in my shop. I hope to order more soon to ramp up production. Thank you Armor Tools

Actual garbage. If you want to spend more time fixing the clamps then using them, these are the ones for you. Only reason I gave 1 star was to leave the review, otherwise these would be a 0/5

Using these on my dewalt folding welding table. The holes on the table are slightly bigger than 3/4”, however these clamps do the job. I couldn’t find anyone who had used these clamps with this table, so I took a risk and am not upset at all with the result!! These clamps are great. They hold my rockler trim router table to my workbench quite nicely. I would and may buy more of these clamps.

I use the standard hold fasts which work very well at keeping my work from moving around. The only draw back is having to place a small pad between the fast and the work to prevent marring the work. Also I have to keep a mallet close by to "whang" the fast into submission. With the Armor hold down, I set the pressure I needed and it is quick and simple to set the hold down or release. The hold down has a nice plastic pad to prevent marring the work.This has now become my go to hold down. Good job on making a great product.

In the end I received 3 of these. One of the first two did not fit snugly in my Festool MFT table. Even with tightening it up all the way there was still play. The company I purchased these from shipped out a replacement and told me to not return the damaged one. As I got into using these to hold a piece of wood in place for sanding I found them cumbersome. They (all 3) would force my piece into a slanted position which would eventually work itself loose. They are difficult to tighten into the 20mm hole by hand ad not have them wiggle. Also while sanding my work piece the adjustment tightening knob would keep working itself loose and fall out after 10-15 minutes of sanding. These seemed like a good resort as opposed to pushing out the big dollars for the festool clamps but I may have to end up going that direction these are almost useless and unreliable. I wanted to like them but they just have too much working against them. Picture attached shows how it hold work piece when using adequate pressure to stabilize piece.

This is a pricey item. It is well made and has an adjustable tension. My only complaint is that shaft grooves are shallow and sometimes doesn't want to bite. Also, it does not have rock solid application, but that's the nature of it anyhow. Yet, it is useful. It's big plus is that it won't mar your work as bench irons often do. You need a 3/4" hold bored in the bench and it will have to have a thicker top for it to bit. If your bench is thin you MAY add (screw & glue) a 2x4 block and bore it through to give you more thickness for it to work. You'll need to use it in conjunction with a bench do or a clamp stop.
