Best price I've seen in these. Beating out Home Depot's deal by about $45. Free shipping for prime members.

Includes (2) 24" Parallel Clamps + (2) 31" Parallel Clamps

There are some other sizes ones... the 41" seems to be the best on CCC.

BORA Parallel Clamp 2-Pack: Your Choice - $74.99 - Free shipping for Prime members. Combo seems like the best deal though.

they are the same thing yet cheaper here. There will be some fan boys that claim REVO's are the best (because they are pricier) but these function and perform exactly the same

Bora are comparable to jet or k bodies and this is a fantastic price. However, I have achieved that point of enough clamp's or I would be in for some myself. A long time ago (12yrs?) before the k bodies, there was amazon pricing that was ludicrous- just that every single clamp was packed in its own oversize box. I still remember the look on my wifes face when she came home to a stack of 30 large boxes on our porch. Almost 1/2 the delivery truck, lol.

Nice find OP!

I have both. They are basically identical in function AND in size. So you can use them together in glue-ups without worrying about it. I slightly prefer the K Body just in looks and the plastic housing has a bit less rattle, but maybe 5% better. Not 50%.

FYI, the 50" are also a good deal at $76 a pair.

In for 2x 4-piece set and 1x 50" pair. Thanks!

....About half the price.

The main issue with the Bora parallel clamps is that they are not parallel until pressure is applied. For some projects, the amount of pressure required is too much.

There are at least a dozen brands of parallel clamps,with some being identical to each other. Personally, I like the Torquata HD and the Jet parallel clamps with the super easy finger release, or the Jorgensen cabinet master, but most any of the brands work.

Perhaps one of these days, Bessey will retire that round, red, slick wood handle for one that is more comfortable and easier to tighten... like the Jorgensen, Bora, etc. Sure, the Revo can accommodate a 6mm hex (Allen) in the end of the handle, but that should be the exception and not the normal for many people that did not hand milk cows their whole life.

PS: Oh wait, the newer handles on the Bessey are different.

Hmm . . . I wonder if they would work with the Rail and Stile jig [amazon.com] that I use from Bessey. I would love another pair of 24", and the 31" would be nice since my next size is 50" which is pretty unwieldy for small panel door glue ups, but I really enjoy using that jig.

Probably going to be a bit of slop, but that price for the 4 blocks is a post of it's own.

I got the exact same purchase. I noticed the difference between 2- 30', 40", and 50" were only $1 step up for each. Well worth for the 50"
