Product Description
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.

 Perfect little product April 18, 2009

Wish I had know that Bessey made these a few years ago. Really saves on clamp purchases when you have a large project. Easy to connect on the newer models of Bessey clamps. If you have the older models without the pre-drilled holes....good luck! Drilling large holes in the metal used to make the clamps can be a real challenge.
Bessey fits jet w/ a little finessing April 5, 2009

I needed to extend my Jet clamps. This Bessey extender works, but you have to drill out the hole in the Bessey. This really saved me from having to buy more clamps. Highly recommended.
Problems with longer clamping capabilities? Turn existing clamps in your inventory into just that. March 14, 2009

I did not know about this product until I went with Amazon in purchasing some Bessey Rev0 K-Body clamps. Had I known about this, I would have never went with the pipe clamps. This essentially combines two K-Body clamps together for a longer clamping extension.
This won't provide a sturdy solid arm for the combined clamps but it does hold the two in place solidly. If one wanted a sturdy clamp arm along with the length, pipe clamps would have to be an option.
Quality is all there. This piece is a solid piece of aluminum and the bolts do their job in holding the clamp. There is indentions that form fit to the new Rev0 and existing K-Body clamps before so it is backwards compatible. A plus! However, initial fitting is a bit of slight work due to the hole drill-outs of the bolts. There is a tiny bit of material that initially blocks the way. One can slightly file it down or just simply force it in. This isn't too much of a big deal though but it is something to be pointed out.
Extender a great investment October 20, 2008

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.
 Doesn't fit Jorgensen October 5, 2008

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.
