The WERKHELD clamp set made a very good impression as soon as it was unpacked. It was delivered in a product box that was tailored exactly to the size of the set of 10. The manufacturer has completely dispensed with environmentally harmful materials such as plastic. In addition to the 10 clamps, a plain white instruction leaflet in the size of a sheet of A4 paper folded once is enclosed. The instructions for use provide clear step-by-step instructions on how to attach the clamps to a workpiece and then remove them again correctly. The first impression after unpacking is positive.

After unpacking, you will notice that all 10 clamps supplied are identical. The design in black and eye-catching orange looks modern and provides a pleasant contrast, making the clamps stand out. The rubberized handle has a high-quality feel and ensures that you have the right grip when you pick up the clamp. When you squeeze the handle, it immediately becomes clear that the product has a high clamping force . Partly due to the high clamping force, it is also important to keep the product away from children – it is a DIY product that could pose a danger to toddlers and children and should always be kept safe. The clamp set makes a high-quality first impression.
