I have had this strap clamp for over 10 years, and have used it on mirrors having upto 10 sides, picture frames and other uses, and this clamping device has met with great satisfaction my every need in clamping.

I'm building a custom cart for a friend. Part of the cart is a detachable utility box. I needed a way to clamp the sides together while the glue dried.
Because its a fairly big box, I purchased two of these strap clamps. They proved extremely easy to set up and use, they equally distributed the clamping pressure and, in short, I'm very pleased with them.

This strap clamp is very good, but the only improvement to me would be that the corner clamps should have some kind of non-skid feet on the bottom. I used the strap clamp for frame making.

I needed a clamp for small rectangular frames and thought this one would do the job well. It's well-built, can create a very strong clamping force, and is easy to put together. Because of the width of the strap and design of the corner clamps, you shouldn't try to use it on stock that's less than about an inch thick. I found it difficult to impossible to align the corner clamps to the 1/2" wide framing material i was using, so for now, this one's demoted to the shelf. I'd recommend that Bessey consider a new model with a 3/8"-wide strap and corner clamps on the order of 1/2" wide. The design would probably scale up to a whole family of similar clamps, too, easily up to 2" or more -wide straps and corners. The price is very reasonable and the unit is VERY strong. an excellent clamp for the right objects and material.
