K Clamps

Joinery sash clamps named after the shape of the main bars which are a K rather than a T shape. Made by Bessey

Bessey Revo K-Body Clamp from Rockler.

Utilising the "K" shaped bar that is used in many other Bessey clamps, I guess these clamps are just upgraded modern versions of the traditional sash clamp. They have the facility to be fixed to a bench and used just as the traditional sash clamps are used.

Using the clamps in a cabinetmakers shop.

The clamps are provided with generous plastic protectors for the jaws. As you can see here there is flexibility in the way that the black supports can be used. There are six different sizes available from 12" to 60"
