**DEAL ALERT** Amazon Sale of DeWalt Track Clamps

[Z48LT1]

These were mentioned in a track saw related thread today so I dropped into Amazon to check them out and discovered them for half price.  Dunno whether this is unusual, but anything half price is worth mentioning, amirite?

No idea whether this is time limited or NA only.

Good to know about the price of these clamps.  Just for everyone's information, it looks like they've been between $29 and $34 on Amazon over the course of the past year.

due to the size I use these the least. maybe i should trim them down or something.

Not really a "DEAL"  - that's the everyday price over at the HomeDepot and like ToolTown says pretty much the everyday Amazon price too.

Yea not a great deal, but good clamps if you dont want to spend the money on the Festool versions. The DeWalts work on the Festool Guide Rails.

There's a good site called "CamelCamelCamel" that you can always use to track the price history of any item:https://camelcamelcamel.com/

Just go to the website and search for the item and it presents some nice graphs, and statistics.

These are handy clamps.  Easy to use one handed.  Plenty of clamping force for the track.

I actually prefer these to the Festool ones.

I wasn't aware the HD carried these clamps, I looked for them in the store and online and did not find them. They are not your run-of-the-mill quick clamps, they are designed to work with the DeWalt track saw track.

When I bought my DeWalt track saw they did not come with the saw, and they wanted $29 each for them. I posted in another thread how I modified some regular DeWalt quick clamps to make track saw clamps that fit my DeWalt track and also work in T-track.

In the photos included in the post below you can see the difference in the DeWalt track clamps and the clamps I modified to work with the track saw. Someone above mentioned how they did not like the large size of the DeWalt clamps, that is another reason why I came up with my mod, I wanted a pair of smaller clamps that fit in the box with the saw and still had decent clamping capacity, my modified clamps have about 5-1/2" clamping capacity.
