Seasons Greetings,

Hi what type of clamps are these, what are they called, or can they be called? In case I have tracking them down in the UK, any idea where in the UK I can buy them?
Cheers.

Hi, no if you look at my posted picture number 2 you will see it only has one arm. The Lee Valley has 2 one at front and one at back.

I have some of these which I got from Axminster a while ago. I have just checked their web page and they do not seem to have them anymore. I am not surprised as they do have some shortcomings and if you look at the Axminster web for Hold down clamps there are some much better alternatives.

Treat your self it's Christmas

Asim; that thread was from 2013...a year ago.
The thread dates are posted at the left, just above the registered user's name.
No harm in replying; it's simply that if the question was time sensitive, the OP is long gone.
