If you do a lot of edge-glued panels, then Parallel Action Clamps are the clamps for you. These clamps are designed specifically with the idea of making edge-glued panels come out perfectly flat,without any bowing and without the need for using cauls to keep the boards aligned straight.

These heavy-duty clamps can also be used as spreaders, by reversing the headstock, a process that takes mere seconds. Although the clamps are heavy-duty, they are lighter than the competition, making them easier to work with. If you want your glue-ups to come out right, these are the clamps for you.

Highlights:

  • Lighter Than the Competition

    Easier to handle than most parallel clamps, without sacrificing strength or performance.

  • 1,000 lbs Clamping Pressure

    Provides up to 1,000 lbs of pressure—far beyond the 250 lbs recommended by glue manufacturers for strong, reliable joints.

  • Secure, Non-Damaging Locking

    Serrated rails for positive headstock positioning, without the locking mechanism digging into your rails.

  • Self-Supporting Design

    Flat-bottomed head, tailstock, and tailpiece keep your glue-ups steady on the bench.

  • Dual Function: Clamp & Spreader

    Reversible head lets you switch from clamping to spreading in seconds.

  • Rubber Overmolded Handle

    Comfortable grip with better control when applying clamping pressure.

Uses & Features

  • Consistent Pressure

    Applies even clamping pressure across the thickness of your boards, preventing bowing during glue-ups.

  • Edge Gluing Pro

    Perfect for edge-glued panels. Parallel action clamps eliminate the need for cauls by providing consistent pressure to the glue-up.

  • Heavy-Duty Rails

    Built to hold firm under serious pressure. These rails won’t flex, even under a full 1,000 lbs of force.

  • Serrated Rails

    Provide a positive location locking for the headstock, without having the locking bars dig into the surface of the rail.

  • No Bowing

    Edge-glued panels come out flat, not bowed, even without cauls.

  • Reversible Head

    Quick release tailpiece allows the head to be reversed, allowing the clamp to be used as a heavy-duty spreader.

  • Lightweight Head

    Reinforced for strength, but lighter than competing brands—so you can set up and adjust more easily.

  • Self-Supporting

    Head, tailstock and tailpiece are all designed with flat bottoms, allowing the clamps to sit on the workbench with no added supports.
