Our enduring commitment to quality.
Finest metals.
We use only high-quality ductile cast iron, drop-forged, high-carbon steel, and anodized aluminum in our clamps.
Zinc or chrome plating is added to many clamps for increased durability and rust resistance.
Cold-drawn steel screws let you clamp with confidence.
Select wood.
Only the finest seasoned, straight-grain North American maple wood makes it into our iconic Jorgensen handscrews, and all our seasoned hardwood clamp handles are meticulously shaped for maximum comfort to help them feel just right.
Original techniques.
The patented feature of our E-Z HOLD clamps allows you to join two clamps together to double the opening capacity of a standard clamp.
The iconic multiple-disc-clutch design of our bar clamps has become an industry standard, giving you a secure hold anywhere along the bar.
It all started with a handscrew.
Pony Jorgensen was founded in 1903 in the great city of Chicago. It was there that we created the first clamp made specifically for woodworking, the Jorgensen handscrew, which quickly became a staple among hobbyists and professionals alike. Today, our mission remains the same as it was more than a century ago – to provide woodworkers with the best tools at a fair price.
