BESSEY Sliding Arm Locking Clamp?

[ArlyA]

Where do you guys buy your BESSEY Sliding Arm Locking Clamps? They sure are pricey!

I don't own one but it does look handy. They are pricey for sure.

I bought mine at the LWS,, they have inventory reduction occasionally,,
The counter guy knows I am an easy mark,, so he calls!!

We used Bessy at the Tool and Die and never had issues with them.

Back in the day a salesman would come out with a trunk full selling on the spot...

Thanks for helping me spend my money.
I ordered 2 from Temu.

Please post the $$ you are getting them at.

I don't have the model you're looking at, instead I have about 30 of the 1200 lb rated (F style) Stronghand 4 in 1 - about half in 12" and half in the 8" length - I was an Enco customer when MSC bought them out, so I got in on MUCH better pricing (around $25 each) -
I LOVE their 4 in 1 package, gives you flat/pipe/step-over (AND Spreader) in one clamp -

I also have a couple of their "one hand" F clamps and several of their "vise grip" types, won't EVER buy the actual vise grips again... Steve

26$ each

I noticed that the REAL Bessey version has their name stamped into the side and has a red sleeve on the release - the Temu version shows several pics, NONE of which show the Bessey name.

Another "oriental dis-orientation" I'm thinking... Steve
