I previously bought a set of these pipe clamps and instead of changing them off the shorter pipes I decided to get a new set for the longer pipes and was surprised to see that the clamps were now made here. They are not, but are still great clamps that do the work I need of them. I just had my hopes up that I was buying stateside.

4.0 out of 5 stars Bessey H Style Pipe Clamp versus Rockler Sure-Foot Pipe Clamp
Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2012
Bessey 3/4 H-Style pipe clamps are great. They're make out of cast iron, solid, durable, look like they'll last a life time.

I order two of these, one of them have a not so flat clamping surface, I'm a little OCD, so I'll return this and get a replacement. I'll upload a picture that show this defect. The other one is perfectly flat, so perhaps i just got one from a bad batch.

When I was looking for pipe clamps, I was considering this Bessey H-Style and the Rockler Sure-Foot. I picked these two brand because of the raised feet that allow the handle to clear the ground. I bought two of the Bessey and two of the Rockler. Both clamps are very similar (well they're pipe clamp, what else do you expect). Both are of good quality but here's the some differences between the two for those in the same boat that I was and wondering which one to get. I'll upload a couple pictures of the clamps side by side for your visual comparison.

Main Differences:

* Bessey clamp's feet are a little longer (3/8"). Ground clearance (measure from the top of the pipe). 3" for Bessey, 2 5/8" for Rockler. I'll probably glue some 3/8" thick piece of wood underneath my Rockler clamp to bring the ground clearance up to the same level of the Bessey.

* Clamping surfaces:
Bessey: 1 3/4 (width) x 1 5/8 (height).
Rockler: 1 3/4 (width) x 2 1/4 (height).

the clamping surface of the Rockler is a 3/8 taller. I prefer this. Rockler clamps also seem to have better finish, the clamping surface is smoother and flatter. I have 3 of the Bessey clamp and two of them do not have very flat & smooth clamping surfaces. Would it make a different in clamping? probably not.

* Bessey come with rubber cover for the clamping surface to protect your work. Rockler cheap out on this and sell the rubber cover separately (come on Rockler). Not really a big deal for me though. I'm sure I can find a piece of rubber somewhere in the house and tape it on.

Similarity:

* raise, wide, stable footing.
* handle clear the ground for easy tightening.
* smooth clamping action.

In conclusion, I think these are best pipe clamping currently available. Both Bessey H Style & Rockler Sure-foot are good clamps, can't go wrong w/ either. I do like the finish of Rockler clamp better so I give it 5 versus 4 for the Bessey clamp.
