Product Description
This versatile tool set is ideal for turning, cutting, tightening, clamping, twisting, and fabrication setup.Hobart 770617 13-Piece Welding Clamp Set Review
I bought these 13 months ago along with my first welder. I must say I'm not impressed.The long and medium reach are the worst (and the mini one). They hold enough pressure without wobbling around for only the most light duty jobs, mine lasted 3 months.
I never used the 3 jaw ones, nothing I'm doing needs them.
The F clamps are pretty good, sloppy, but usable. I'm still using them.
The classic vise-grip are pretty poor. They lasted a few months as well.
The flat gripping one (top right) would be handy, but the jaws are terribly misaligned.
I'm not hard on tools - I use them for what they are designed to do and don't over clamp. These aren't made to do the job. Handles bend, rivets fail and tolerances are poor (These are IDENTICAL to the HF ones for 1/5th the price). Wish I knew that when I bought them.
I think Hobart should recall these and apologize to those who have purchased them.
