I have the same problem as others. It's like the teeth or something are stripped
Useful. I see some other posters have out so they didn't work my work just fine and they tightened and sailed their tightness I have no idea what this guy didn't have any luck maybe they got I have no idea I've had mine for years and they work perfectly.
I bought these clamps about a month ago. I have not read any of the reviews if I did I would not have bought them. I am an avid wood worker hobbyist. I have bought various sizes and all have worked perfectly. Personally I like the ratchet grip because now it is so much easier to clamp up one handed. After reading the reviews I felt I should add my positive experience. I will only use these for light work which is why I bought them in the first place. For me these are meant to be a step up from vise grip clamps but not when I need the weight and strength of heavy duty parallel clamps. I will buy more in the future. while I strongly recommend for a woodworker I do not recommend them for a welder since weld splatter could easily damage the clutch action.
Like everyone else here ive experienced that the clamps are slipping!
I guess I'm not the only sorry case.... My vise grips work so well that I use them for more than what is expected. Which brings me to this case in point... Why...they certainly look sturdy. Please correct this problem.
