Regular price $49.90

Exclusive Features of the Microjig MATCHFIT Dovetail Ratchet Clamp

MicroJig's new ratcheting T-track clamp perfectly completes all of your T-track clamping needs. From jigs, fixtures and even your track saw guides, this clamping solution has you covered!

Anti-Pivot Spring Holds the Arm in Place
Say goodbye to clamp arms that drop when released. The Microjig Ratchet Clamp features the exclusive “Anti-Pivot” AP Spring, which keeps the arm exactly where you set it, even when hanging upside down. This innovative design allows you to release pressure, reposition your workpiece, and reapply the clamp without ever having to adjust the arm.

Fast-Acting Ratchet Clamping
Secure your materials quickly and efficiently in just three simple steps. Adjust the arm until the pad contacts the workpiece, pull the handle to increase pressure with each click, and release instantly by pressing the quick-release button. This streamlined process ensures maximum productivity.

Superior Leverage for All Users
The long ratchet handle provides exceptional leverage, making the clamp easy to use even for those with limited hand strength or grip issues. The ratchet mechanism’s positive lock resists loosening, even during high-vibration tasks like routing or grinding.

Large Clamping Face for Workpiece Protection
The oversized clamping face, equipped with a molded protective cover, prevents surface damage, ensuring your materials stay secure and unscathed during use.

Works with MatchFit Dovetail Grooves and Standard T-Tracks
This versatile clamp seamlessly integrates with the MatchFit Dovetail Groove, which you can create using any 1/2" wide, 14-degree dovetail router bit. Alternatively, use it with any standard 12mm x 8mm T-slot. Please note: this clamp is not compatible with DeWalt track saw guide rails.

Customizable Clamp Tracks with MatchFit
