Kreg Tool Co. Announces Automaxx™ Clamps

Kreg Tool Company makes clamping faster and easier than ever before with new Automaxx™ Clamps that adjust automatically to hold materials of varying thicknesses without ever adjusting the clamp.

Kreg Tool Company, a leading manufacturer of tools and accessories for woodworkers and do-it-yourselfers, is proud to announce the launch of Kreg Automaxx™ Clamps. These innovative clamps use new technology to adjust the clamp automatically to match the thickness of the material being clamped—whether it’s thick, thin, or in between.

Automaxx™ Clamps provide an easier, better way to move the clamp from a material of one thickness to another. Instead of having to adjust the jaws using a knob usually found on the handle of locking clamps, you just set the clamping pressure once using an easy-to-regulate thumbscrew. After that, Automaxx™ Clamps do the rest—locking the clamps closed easily and consistently every time and with every thickness.

Automaxx™ Clamps are available in two styles and sizes to provide fast and foolproof solutions for a wide array of clamping jobs. Automaxx™ Face Clamps take care of handheld clamping needs, while Automaxx™ Bench Klamps work with the Kreg Klamp Plate or Klamp Track to provide an adjustable bench-mounted clamping station.

• Automaxx™ Face Clamp: Automaxx™ Face Clamps are available in two sizes: The KHC1410 Face Clamp offers a 3" reach and clamps materials up to 27⁄8" thick. The KHC1420 Large Face Clamp has a 6" reach and clamps materials up to 41⁄4" thick.

• Automaxx™ Bench Klamp: Automaxx™ Bench Klamps come in two different sizes, as well: The KKS1120 Bench Klamp offers a 3" reach and clamps materials up to 21⁄2" thick. The KKS1140 Large Bench Klamp has a 6" reach and clamps materials up to 41⁄4" thick.

• Automaxx™ Bench Klamp System: In addition, Kreg offers the KKS1110 Automaxx™ Bench Klamp System that combines a 3" Automaxx™ Bench Klamp with a Kreg Klamp Plate that can be mounted into a bench top to create an incredibly versatile 360° clamping station.

Kreg Automaxx™ Clamps will be available starting June 15, 2013. Prices start at $29.99.
