Hold down clamps

[Anonymous]

Hi all

Where do people get those hold-down clamps that are often used in jigs from?

I have looked at Farnell and Axminster and they seem a little pricey to me.

Thanks

Have you tried Cromwell Tools in wigston, I feel that i've seen them there, ask for over centre clamps.

Tony,
Are they the toggle clamp types? I bought mine from my local Trend dealer, 2 for a tenner If I remember correctly.
Cheers,

Wealdendo them - although not much difference in price to Axminster. I have some and they are well made clamps.
I have noticed Tilgear have them too - and quite cheap if bought in sets of four. Let me know if you don't have their catalogue - I can look some prices up for you.
Cheers
