I didn't see a separate category for Reviews so I did mine here.

I needed some more miniature clamps and these "Micro Trigger Clamps" by Bessey were a father's day gift.

They were $7 each. Not too bad.

But like most miniature clamps they flex some and again like most they feel like they'd break if squeezed too much.
 
With a 4 1/2" opening by 1 5/8" jaw depth and 40 lb clamping force, it’s a good size for holding workpieces against jigs and fixtures and securing stop blocks or small-scale project parts.

It has soft, removeable pads that prevent the clamp from marring surfaces and are crosshatched to ensure a strong grip.

What I didn't care for was the "Release" trigger. It's in an awkward spot.

The clamps are decent but I would prefer the release in front or back like the other two shown. 


Functionally for the clamping force they are good....


For the release they are awkward...
I rate them as below "average"
