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 $60 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.
If you were hoping to score a great deal on parallel clamps for Black Friday, DO NOT PASS THIS UP.
As the clamp set is already sale-priced, it is not eligible for additional discounts. It is unclear as to when this sale will end. Supplies are usually limited, which I cannot stress enough.

According to their site, these are ‘temporarily oversold.’ HA!
Stuart
Yes – I saw that at the start and added mention in the post.
It just means they’re on backorder – don’t let that stop you!
These sell out fast every year.
Experience has taught me that the deal isn’t over until it changes to “not available.”
William Adams
I bought these the other year — they’re huge, and I wish I had room for one more set…. maybe next year, or sometime after I get a larger dedicated shop-space…..

The stanley parallel claps are better in my opinion. Now they are heavy and I mean heavy but you can put some torque on them. Bought them when they were at Big Lots 20+ years ago, 4 – 60 in and 8 24in, for $10 each what a deal.

I miss the days of Jet parallel clamp holiday deals of the past. Looked at my order from many years back and wish I bought even more at those insanely low prices. 24″ were $22 ea.
Stuart
I checked but haven’t seen any Jet parallel clamp deals at all. I went with Bessey for my own clamp purchases and haven’t had any regrets.

Same. I bought this set last year or the year before and plan on getting one more set to round out my collection. Amazing clamps.

Jet clamps have seriously declined in quality.
Snagged a bunch last year at this time and the teeth on the bar are a fraction of the size they used to be. The clutch no longer grabs the bar, so it constantly slams down on you when clamping vertically.
Robert
I got this deal last year. Seems about the same price. Maybe even lower this year. Don’t need to use the 50s very much, and actually have not used the extenders, but when I did need to use the 50s they were so nice. I’d stress these are not Jrs, not the Revo Jrs. The juniors are Ok, but these Revo Srs just feel they showed up to rumble.

These are perhaps the best parallel clamps you can buy. I prefer them to Jet whose hard body plastic can mar the wood when clamping.
Many people prefer the positive locking mechanism on the moveable jaw of the Jet, but once you get the hang of the way the Bessey works they are fine, although sometimes the jaw will slide down in free position.
This is a pretty good deal, especially these days. The extenders are around $20 EACH, which makes this kit particularly attractive. Not something you use too often, but when you need them they are great to have. Works with any length so gives you a lot of options to create the size you need for a project.
Not sure I need more 50″ clamps, so I might sell a couple of my Jets. Very happy to get couple more 24″ ones at a sale price, since, as they say, you can’t have too many clamps.

Just ordered a set.
Site did not say “not available”
I have an old pair of 36” Jorgensons when they were still made in USA I think.
I love them. If these are as good I’ll be happy.
I waited too long last year. Just told my wife that she’s done Xmas shopping for me.

FYI. Today I received my Rockler Holiday flyer with coupons.
I was able to use the $20 off $100 coupon to make this deal even more attractive.

What’s on the cover so I know what to look for? I got the fall/winter master catalog but no holiday flyer.

Is there an online code for this?

Did anyone get the error “shipping not available to this address” ?
Bird
Yeah. I did and then I pushed on ahead and put in the credit card info and it worked.

I bought this set two years ago, and again last year.
Fantastic deal on excellent clamps. I just finished building a set of kitchen cabinets, and they were perfect for the job. Drawers and doors are nexr – I know I’ll use all of them, multiple times.
minionsweb
Got the deal last year.
thinking I’ll order another set.
they’re beasts.
I remember seeing a YouTube review of them & the reviewer was saying you can get equivalent for cheaper, then plugged pipe clamps, saying they’ll provide more force yada yada…in his dreams maybe
Guess he didn’t know you can insert an Allen wrench into the grip and truly torque the hell out of about anything
