Kreg KHCCC 90 Degree Corner Clamp - Right Angle - Corner & T-Joint Clamps for Woodworking - Carpentry Tools & Accessories - Holiday Home Improvement Gifts for Him

I already owned a pair of 3” Kreg clamps, a pair of 2” Kreg clamps. I currently am up to four 6” Automaxx Kreg clamps which are my most-used clamps of anything that I have for woodworking projects. I have a lot of bar clamps of various sizes that I use often to hold large projects for glue curing but my Kreg clamps get used both for gluing and pocket jig joints. With my satisfaction for the Kreg clamps that I already have, I bought these corner clamps with confidence. True to my previous experiences with Kreg clamps, they are fine quality and work nicely. I have other corner clamps that are only good for scrap. They will go in a garage sale, one day for fifty cents a piece, if I can get it. The Kreg corner clamps are forever though. My only disappointment was to find these new Kreg corner clamps labeled Made In China. I happily pay a bit more for quality American-made tools. I incorrectly assumed that clamps were made in the Huxley, Iowa, USA manufacturing plant. A word of caution also, there is a Chinese knock-version of these Kreg clamps on the market. The photo on the Amazon ad showed, what appeared to be, a genuine Kreg clamp complete with the Automaxx logo on the handle. I bought a pair of those to supplement these two Kreg originals. I returned them as defective for refund. Be certain to buy the Kreg originals. Do not be fooled by false photos.

Had a problem with one of the clamps. But Kreg took great care of the problem quickly and I couldn't be more happy . 10 out of 10 .

Adding to the ever growing collection of clamps and kreg products, these server a useful purpose. They clamps corners and hold them tight. And of course they give you room to drive a screw. Also, the corner angles turn, to use on either side. Everything about them is heavy duty, so I am sure they will out last me. One note, they will NOT tighten a corner for you, they only hold it in place. They will not pull the pieces up tight against each other, but they do hold fast. Only other thing, a couple of these do not operate as smooth as they should, they can be kind of clunky. Seems kreg could work on getting the mechanism to mover a little nicer. It is nice to be able to clamp them with one hand. Can't say they are some wonderful or magical tool I can't do without, but they work.

I purchased 2 of these clamps. Neither one will hold 3/4 inch plywood when assembling a cabinet. I have a right angle clamp by Kreg that uses the same auto adjust that works like a charm. I may have been lucky enough to get 2 defective clamps. So I contacted Kreg about this. The same day I received a reply describing how to reset the clamps and it this doesn't work to let them know. So I followed the instructions and the clamps begin to work like they should. I have to commend Kreg on their quick response. Here is how to reset the auto adjust clamps. " So you will open the jaws and back out that adjustment screw to the point where it is really loose but not falling out. You should see around 3/8" of threads between the bottom of the head of the screw to where it screws into the mechanism. Then you will close the jaws then open them back up. After that, you can bring that adjustment screw back to the positive around halfway down and try to clamp it down. That adjustment is not an exact adjustment, you may have to tighten it more or loosen it more to get the correct pressure you want to apply. When you are using the clamp, you will want to make sure you are opening the clamp fully when you are moving the clamp. This will allow the Automaxx system to reset to zero each time. You should only need to adjust the adjustment screw if you need to add or take out pressure from the clamp as the clamp will adjust to different thicknesses on its own. "

These are an imitation of the actual KREG product. I compared to an actual KREG at the store and these look somewhat less polished and less robust. They work okay, but have at least one serious FUNCTIONAL LIMITATION. The actual KREG product has an adjustable corner stop, but this cheap knock-off does not. If you watch the (KREG-made) video they pirated to advertise this known-off, you can see them use it. It's the beveled, spring loaded piece on the smaller / inside clamp face. On the KREG you can pull up on and rotate the stop to configure the joint. Say you have 'bottom' and 'side' pieces for your joint. If you have the corner stop turned one way, the the 'side' would run all the way to the stop / outside of the joint and the 'top' would but into it. Kinda like this: |_ If you rotate the corner stop the other way, 'bottom' will go all the way to the stop, which will be the outside of the finished joint, and the 'side' will butt into the 'top' piece. Not being able to easily change this is a severe limitation on the usefulness of the clamp. It CAN be changed by unscrewing the stop, rotating it, and screwing it back in. This is a pain in the anatomy because it's difficult to get at the screw and difficult to re-assemble. Not super hard, but not something you want to do every time you put the clamp in a different position. So, false advertising in calling it a KREG product and using the stolen video that highlights features these clamps don't actually have. Boo. I hadn't really shopped for these when I purchased them, so I didn't realize how much cheaper they were than the actual KREG product, or I would have known they were knock-offs. I doubt I'll send them back, but I wouldn't buy them with the hard-to change corner stop.

I got the Kreg KHCCC corner clamp for some woodworking projects, and it does the job but there are a few things that could be better. The automatic adjustment feature is nice and makes it easy to set up but I found it a bit tricky to get the perfect hold every time. Sometimes it’s a little too tight or not tight enough which can throw off your project. The build quality is solid, though, and once you get it adjusted right it holds corners and joints securely. It works well for cabinets and boxes but it’s not the most user-friendly tool if you're not experienced. Overall, it’s good for the price but it could be a little more precise and easier to use. It’s decent but I’m not completely sold on it.

Fast delivery. Correct product. Good condition. Kreg makes great products, what else can you say.

The clamp doesn't have all the grip of any face clamp or else, but it works fine for the main use, butt joints at right angles. The main purpose is to hold the pieces together in order to use screws or pocket hole joints, that works as designed. Do not expect gorilla pressure on the clamp, it is not intended for that, only to keep the pieces at 90 degrees and use pocket holes, screws and nails. I wish to have one of this on my first cabinet I used a corner clamp since the main intention is to hold everything in order to put the screws. The adjustment screw is easy to use.
