Bessey KBX20 K Body Clamp Extender

Combine any two Bessey K Body Clamps and get enormous clamping capacity while retaining all the benefits of parallel clamping. Two 60" Clamps combined make a 120" K Body Clamp, long enough for the largest of cabinets! Durable aluminum construction ensures a rigid link with no twisting or unwanted movement and provides a stable base to prevent tipping. Includes Aluminum Clamp Extender, 2 bolts, 2 nuts and 4 washers. Note: The Extender is compatible with the newer K Body Clamps, which feature a black swivel foot-pad (and a hole) opposite the handle. Older clamps can be modified to make them work with the extender.

Features and Specs:
* 7-7/8" long.
* 2-1/16" wide at base.
* 1-1/8" wide at top.
* Durable aluminum construction provides a precise, rigid link.
* No loss of strength or parallelism.
* Extender lies flush with the top of clamp bar for flat glue ups.
* Matching channel in the Extender mates perfectly with the K Body clamp bar profile to eliminate twist and unwanted movement.
* Extender feet provide additional stability while laying upright on a bench or when turned over to straddle a carcase.
* Anodized finish prevents black marks from reaction with glue.
* Combine different sizes for custom lengths.

Bessey's K Body Clamp Extender helps make the most of your shorter clamps. They are one sale at times and I took advantage of a sale, got six clamps, and with the extender, made three long clamps that worked wonderfully even on a six foot bookcase. Perfect 90 degree clamping. Beefy and well-designed. A good addition to your workshop.

After a lot of checking with no definitive answer, I ordered this product because it "looked" like it would fit my Jorgensen clamps (same general shape, design, etc) but it didn't. I returned it but didn't get the shipping refunded because I had ordered the wrong product even though I had asked both the manufacturer and Amazon but got nebulous answers.

Great way to stretch a bit more value out of a set of existing clamps. I thought that they were a bit expensive for what you get, but once in hand I can appreciate them. Pictures don't do them justice. They are a beefy adapter. The main block is probably about a pound of aluminum. The bolts are huge. Looks like they are for tension only, but honestly I wouldn't go compressing longer than a 50" clamp anyways.
