Over at Rockler, they have this Bessey 4pc K Body Revo parallel clamp set on sale for just $179.95.
The set comes with 2x 24″ clamps, 2x 50″ clamps, and 2x clamp extenders, and is priced to move quickly!
If you’re not familiar with parallel clamps, they are are used in woodworking applications to apply strong and even pressure across large faces.

Bessey K Body Revo clamps are among the best in the industry.
At the time of this posting, Bessey 24″ clamp (KRE3524), is available for around $50 and up. It’s $60 each at Home Depot.
Bessey’s 50″ clamp (KRE3550) is available for around $62 and up. Home Depot has it for $70 each.
Even ignoring the clamp extension accessory, getting 2x 24″ and 2x 50″ clamps for $180 – and with free shipping – is a great deal.
This is a great combo to start out with – in my opinion, or expand one’s parallel clamp collection. 24″ clamps are great for working with smaller workpieces, and 50″ are sized for working with larger panels or assemblies.
In my opinion, there is no upgrade path from Bessey K Body Revo parallel clamps – these are the best there is. They are somewhat pricey, and deals like this have become increasingly rare.

I grabbed this exact set for the same price last year and meant to grab another, but it went out of stock. Excellent price here.

Stu, both of these:
Jorgensen 5pc Bar Clamps – $29.98 at Lowe’s
Jorgensen 2pc 24″ Clamps – $29.98 at Lowe’s
are showing as $19.98 until tomorrow at Lowe’s. That’s a crazy good deal on the 5 pack; $4/clamp. two 12″, two 6″ and a single 4″. I just grabbed four sets.
Stuart
Thanks!
That’s so strange for Lowe’s to undercut their published Black Friday sale prices, but there’s no arguing $20 is better than $30!

I just bought 4 sets at $15.98 online, wild

There was a couple of different black Friday deals on these clamps last year, and I think that I ended up with thirty clamps. Might still grab a few more. Definitely great clamps.
Stuart
So you’re the reason last year’s deals sold out so quickly! =)
In all seriousness, keep in mind that parallel clamp Black Friday deals seem to sell out or end quickly every year. This one doesn’t look to have any notable end date, but I wouldn’t expect it to still be available this time next week.

Also Lowes still has the jorgensen 48” parallel clamp for 39$. Which seems like a great price as well.

Amazon says that they have a deal on 36 inch Jorgensen (now from Hangzhou Great Star)

Another one I couldn’t pass up. This site is becoming dangerous to my wallet..!
Thanks for all the hard work to share these deals with us!!
Stuart
Thank you, and you’re welcome!

Stuart,
Thanks. Bought the Rockler deal. I have some of these already and they are superb. Expensive as you say, so after my first two, I wait for major sales like this to snatch them up. There was a similarly good sale on Revo’s last year about this time, on the 50s by themselves.
Peter
Thank you.

Rockler 20% works on them singly if you need other sizes too.
Tim
Good deal, thx. My local woodcraft had their fall show a couple weeks ago and had the 24 and 31 in Jets on sale for $40 each (unadvertised deal). Hopefully someone has a good deal on the 7in bessey f style, I need something with some reach.
Lindsay
Acme has these on sale for today only.

I got the Rockler deal for the Bessey clamps. I was a Jorgy guy. I have plenty of the American made orange clamps with the maple handles. Now they are all made in China and the company is no longer American. I can’t go there.
Erik
The Bessey Revo clamps are 100% made in China now. I just received my Rockler order and the clamps state right on the box, made in China.
Stuart
Is there really such a big difference between the Jorgensen parallel clamps and the Bessey posted here? I recently got 4x 24″ and 4x 48″ for $300 after tax on Lowe’s. I have no real use for the extender pieces but I’m curious if these justify another Benjamin.
Stuart
I have tried other brands of parallel clamps, and the Bessey are definitely better.
At the least, the Bessey have a higher clamping strength rating. If you’re planning to buy a lot of clamps over time, you can start with one or a pair of each and see which you like better. The next best thing is to visit stores and try both out to see if you can notice any functional differences.

Acme’s email this morning is promoting a BOGO sale on 3 different Jet parallel clamps
MM
Amazon has good discounts on several sizes of Strong Hand brand bar clamps if anyone is looking for that style. You have to browse around as not every configuration is on sale but many of them are. I just bought 6, I love those clamps.
Bill
Looks like I waited too long on this deal. The Rockler website says “Not Available”.
