Product Description
The CMT PGC-50 Professional Straight Edge Clamp is a 1270mm (50") dual-purpose woodworking tool designed to serve as both a precision edge guide and a secure clamping bar. Built for professional woodworkers and serious hobbyists alike, this straight edge clamp functions as a reliable fence for a bandsaw or drill press, and can also be set up as an auxiliary fence on a router table or table saw - making it a genuinely versatile addition to any woodworking shop.
Key Features
- Two-in-one straight edge clamp and edge guide - switch between using it as a clamping bar to hold boards securely or as a straight edge guide for precise routing, sawing, and drilling operations, reducing the number of separate tools you need at the bench.
- 50" (1270mm) working length - provides a long reference edge suitable for guiding cuts and clamps across wide panels, sheet goods, and large workpieces in a variety of woodworking tasks.
- Compatible with bandsaw, drill press, router table, and table saw - adapts to multiple machines as a fence or auxiliary fence, giving you consistent, repeatable setups across different operations without swapping between dedicated guides.
- Professional-grade straight edge clamping system - engineered to hold workpieces firmly in place during cutting, routing, or drilling, reducing workpiece movement and improving accuracy and safety.
Why This Product
- Eliminates the need for multiple single-purpose tools - because the PGC-50 functions as both a straight edge guide and a clamping system, woodworkers can simplify their setup workflow and work more efficiently across a range of common operations.
- Spans a full 1270mm (50") - the generous length makes this clamp practical for sheet goods, wide panels, and larger workpiece formats where shorter guides would fall short of covering the full cut line.
- Designed for use across multiple stationary and portable machine setups - the ability to use it as a fence on a bandsaw, drill press, router table, or table saw means this one tool integrates into a wider variety of shop configurations.
- Suited to professional straight edge clamping applications - built to the standard expected by professional woodworkers who rely on accurate, repeatable fence and clamping setups for consistent results.
