Amazon Basics Locking Pliers - Welding Clamp, 9-inch

I've been a vessel fitter and welder for 20+ years. I decided to try these Amazon Basics clamps, since I've had really good luck with Amazon products. (The orange Amazon commercial work gloves hold up amazingly well, btw).Overall, I like these clamps. They're hardened steel, and have the same sturdiness you get from 11r Milwaukee and 11r Irwin clamps. I read reviews that said these have 'too much play' and I was weary. After comparing them to my existing Milwaukee and Irwin clamps, I have no trouble telling you that they have no more or less 'play' in them than other clamps. I was able to hang a rolled steel plate on stiffener rings, that measured ¼x92"x216" with no problems. My helper once brought Harbor Freight 11r clamps, and this kind of plate mangled them (dangerous).I gave these clamps 4 stars due to the lack of clearance they have between the feet. Milwaukee clamps have the same issue. It falls short of 4". I keep Irwin's around due to their ability to clamp 2"x2" square tube.Pictured for comparison: Irwin in blue, Milwaukee in red, Amazon Basics unpainted.After putting these through rigorous field testing, I've decided to buy 5 more sets.

Works just as good as the ones you'd buy for 50 plus seems built durable, haven't had it long enough to say how durable it is but it feels just like the pair I paid much more for

I bought them just to try them out because they are affordable and I will definitely buy some more they are well built nice thick material hefty rivets and clamp down strong I have used them for 4 days straight and they feel brand new

I use these daily to extend the handle on my compression sock donner so I am actually pulling on them as I put on the sock. The lock is secure and I find them to perform as well as the more expensive name brands.

I liked the price and how sturdy it was , for my purpose and need.

Good tool!

Bought 2 sets, six clamps total. As received all of the holes for the screws were very rough making it somewhat difficult to adjust the clamps. I removed the screws and ran threading taps through the holes, followed by an abrasive rotary brush, and then some grease. They're much better now, not perfect by any means, but nearly as good as my name brand clamps. About 15 minutes of effort.If they hadn't cleaned up I would have rated them at 2 stars. If you don't have taps or the inclination to tune these up they're still usable but I'd probably avoid them.

The clamp/grips were slightly crooked, but got the job done

I received this item through the Amazon Vine programme.I was unimpressed with this set of C-clamp locking pliers. Only one (the middle size) has pad-grips, the other two are just flattened metal tips: this is OK if you are using them just for welding, but if you want to hold items whist an adhesive is curing (for example) then the tips will mark/damage the surface.The pliers are rather crudely manufactured, and very poorly finished, I had to lubricate every joint and moving surface to get anything resembling a smooth action/release.At the time of review any details are unavailable, the link just says "page not found" so no indication of price: however to be frank I wouldn't buy them anyway and cannot recommend them to you: there are several decent quality alternatives available on the Amazon pages.

This set of 3 C Clamps are supplied in easy to open AmazonBasics packaging. They consist of 6 inch, 9 inch and 11 inch clamps that can be used individually or together. They are made of steel and have a chrome finish.The clamps operate similar to mole grips and can provide quick support or be used to hold things together for longer periods. They provide a secure grip although the jaws are metal and may require soft inserts on delicate material. They are easily adjusted by the screw adjuster in the handle.This is a useful set of clamps for whenever you need a helping hand. They are well designed and feel that they will last a long time and while there is currently no price on the listing AmazonBasics are usually competitive.

Review for Amazon Basics 3-Piece C-Clamp Locking Pliers Set - Includes 6-inch, 9-inch and 11-inch.Part of the Amazon basics range, a set of 3 c clamps which allow for a much wider opening that with allowing you to securely clamp together much more awkward widths (due to the C shape of the jaws), than would be possible with other kinds of clamps, making them invaluable in certain circumstances. Can't comment on the value as no published selling price at time of review. Overall these are solid looking c clamp pliers.

This 8 Inch Sheet metal locking tool is Just like any other locking pliers only instead of teeth in the Mouth it has the 8 inch platesthe thread works as expected and opens wide the locking mecanism is sound and more than suitable for DIY projects and basic engineering or Fabricating tasksthey are made from a solid metal i noticed a layer of grease or a oily type of feel but this is common with machined tools maded from metal just a point of interestOver all very good for the price

A pretty good set of clamps. From the largest to smallest they get lesser quality finish, the largest have swivel clamp heads to clamp straight at an angle and the other two have the rounded jaws, the smallest has some slight wonkiness about them in jaws and finish as well.Productively they are all sound and I'd use the largest with the angle heads to prevent and angular marking on softer woods.For the general diy'er these are more than good enough and have a good functioning clamp and lever release.
