I acquired a couple of the Jet clamps as a freebie with a machine purchase. Much to my surprise, they are the equal of Bessey clamps (which I have a lot of) in performance and actually appear to be better made. Personally, I'd buy whichever was better priced if I were in the market for more parallel clamps.
If you need parallel clamps these are great, the little extras make a difference. The sliding supports make it easier to set up with the bars hanging over the table.
I have all three major manufactures of these parallel clamps and Jet is by far the easiest to use. The oversize handle feels great in my not as young as they used be hands. The locking positioner eliminates the problem of holding the locking head just right so it will tighten. The clamping heads are even longer and wider than their competition. My only complaint is that I can not find these clamps locally.
I just received my 31" Jet parallel clamps. I have gone to Jet clamps exclusively and now own 12. They are easy to use, positively lock where you want them, and minimize wood marking. The measures on the bars are quite handy when clamping with multiple clamps. Once you know the length you wish to clamp, all can be set very quickly. I highly recommend these clamps to any cabinet maker, professional or hobbyist.
