Microjig MatchFit Dovetail Ratchet Clamp AP, Precision Clamping Tool with Anti-Pivot Spring (2-Pack)

Microjig MatchFit Dovetail Ratchet Clamp AP with Anti-Pivot Spring for Professional Jig Building

Most clamp arms are free to fall down when released forcing you to reset them every time you secure them, but not Microjig’s Ratchet Clamp. Its exclusive ‘Anti-Pivot’ AP Spring holds the arm where you set it. Now you can release the pressure, move your stock, and reclamp without needing to adjust the arm, upside down or right side up. The ratchet mechanism is fast acting. Just adjust the arm so the pad goes in the stock, and pull the handle to set the hold. Every click increases the pressure. Then instantly open the clamp by pressing the release button. The long ratchet handle provides superior leverage making them easy to use for everyone even those with hand grip issues. The positive lock of the ratchet mechanism resists loosening even under heavy vibration such as grinding or routing.
Work Faster with a Clamp Arm that Won't Drop
Microjig’s exclusive Anti-Pivot coil spring lightly holds the arm so it stays where you set it. Right side up or upside down, just release the pressure, change parts or position and pull the ratchet lever to reset the clamp fast and easy. This clamp fits into the MatchFit Dovetail groove you make using any standard ½-inch wide, 14 degree dovetail bit. Or you can save time using our MatchFit Dovetail Bit that automatically rounds over the top edges and leaves the cleanest possible sides.
Build Jigs like Never Before
The MatchFit dovetail track system allows you to create your own tracks with just a router bit. It’s like an infinite supply of T-track without the cost of T-track. Create your own clamp tracks anywhere you can route. Simply route a groove anywhere you need using a ½-inch - 14-degree dovetail router bit. Microjig’s Anti-Pivot AP Spring ‘pre-loads’ the clamp arm preventing it from falling when released. Clamp and release over and over without resetting the arm, making it always ready to use. Thanks to its efficient ratchet mechanism, you can set the arm and draw the handle to tighten, press the release button to move quickly to the next task. The features you expect are present as the Ratchet Clamp works in the standard MatchFit Dovetail Grooves you mill and the large clamping face is equipped with a molded pad to protect your work.
