Great Product
I received these clamps in good shape. I had the oportunity to use them the next day and wish I would have bought them before. I normally use pipe clamps for long clamp jobs but they don’t even compare to these high quality clamps. The extender worked very well and makes a very strong connection. Great Product, worth the money.
Update (5/19/2012): This item is currently on sale here for the lowest price I’ve seen.

two problems with a good clamp
I recently purchased four 31″ Revo clamps after having used the old-style Bessey 24″ K-clamps for years. I like the larger jaws, work supports and removable caps. The parallel accuracy is dead on.
Although the caps are a nice feature, they are all a bit loose and don’t stay seated on the jaws. A bit of tape helps but should that be necessary?
Also, in a little over a month I’ve broken two of the end clips; one when the clamp tipped over after I leaned it against a cabinet, and the other as I was trying to pry it off of the bar. They are not easy to remove and the plastic is very brittle.
I finally removed the remaining clips and made my own version of Jorgensen’s parallel clamp end stand. (The Jorgensen clips are made of what looks like a fiberglass-reinforced plastic and are released with a simple spring-loaded pin.)
They are still very good clamps, but in this price range these problems shouldn’t exist.

Great clamps, lousy packaging, several broken parts
As other reviewers have pointed out, these terminals are not packaged properly. I ordered two sets of these. Three of the eight terminals with broken tail stops arrived, they had turned up one of the rivet out of his movable jaw, and several were jostled so much that you were cut off during transit jaw protection pads. This is for a product that costs so much inexcusable.
