The Irwin Vise Grip 18DR ( Deep Reach )

Not a tool for frequent use but comes in handy given the situations it was designed for. If you like to tackle obstruction issues head on during fabrication and welding work then this is a good tool to have in the clamps arsenal.

Re: All about Metal Working Clamps

I found a lot of good things being said about this company in the welding forums I do visit.

Strong Hand Tools

http://www.stronghandtools.com/

They do manufacture in China. I find that some of the stuff they have are quite good in design thus I decided to try one of their product and see for myself if indeed the quality control is good.

I was surprised to find that the clamp I ordered reek of quality. From the packaging to the product itself. If I did not know better then I would have thought that the tool was Made in Germany instead of China. Now here's a Chinese manufacturer charging near German prices for their products. Let's see if the durability issue is also addressed then I can say " me Karapatan". For now I would be buying more of their products with a higher level of confidence. I'll get their magnetic ground clamps, welding magnets and a few other stuff next time.
