Mini F-Clamp, 8" Opening, 2-1/4" Throat, 400 Lbs. Clamping Force (Model MMS-8)

Was looking for some smaller clamps and these were the ones. I have two different sizes of this clamp for welding and wanted a smaller one.

I love these. I only wish they came with rubber protective shoes, but some adhesive furniture bumpers work well to prevent them from scuffing. I use them to stabilize my EZ Green Press when I'm using it, and am able to clear up the workspace by taking it down.

Not a terrible clamp but it definitely is "mini" in terms of throat depth. Just read the specs and you'll know what you're getting. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 not because I was too dumb to fully understand what I was getting but because it's clearly a bit of a budget clamp; build quality is good but not stellar. Still, I'd recommend it if it fits your needs and budget.

This Wilton MMS-8 is working good. I like the rubber clamp on the end so it would not make a mark on the wood. I guess I can use for many other things.

I have a whole bunch of these Wilton MMS-8 F clamps I use for various shop projects, and I really like them, but I needed 4 more for a project I was welding, the Wilton clamps had gone WAY up in price at the time of this review (Jan 2025) they were $24 EACH and I really had to think twice about getting them, so I started looking around and came across some QWork F Clamps that look exactly the same.. because they ARE the SAME! I must say, I am VERY happy with the QWork clamps! They are virtually indistinguishable in looks and performance from the Wilton clamps at a much more affordable price! At the time of this review $35 for FOUR! The only things I noticed that are different is the movable piece on these has an indent in the center while the QWork is flatter, the way the tightening lever is crimped is slightly different and of course the lettering on the side says QWORK instead of Wilton... but other than those minor details, they are IDENTICAL to the Wilton clamps that I like so much. They feel the same when I tighten them, they appear to be made from the exact same mold, the length, throat, and thickness are all identical to the Wilton clamps. As far as I'm concerned, Wilton priced themselves out of the market, because if I need more clamps, I'm going to buy a case of QWork Clamps instead of these! The price on theses is WAY too high... when I originally purchased these in March of 2021, I paid $15.48 Each, and that hurt back then because I needed 20 of them. I love the clamps; the price is way too high.

Great for holding small parts

Wilton so they are good. If you're expecting serious strength from these little guys you will not find it. Spend the rediculous 80 to 100 for the industrial clamps.

I got this low profile clamp to go in a tool bag and it fit as expected. I decreased the footprint by drilling out the pin at the end so the screw arm could be taken off.
