I don't like two things about these. The rubber pads fall off somewhere easily. They don't push apart. Otherwise they clamp pretty good
*So I didn't see this one specifically has a push button for the front end to flip it around. My set of four did not have this push button and is not reversable and literally has pressed pins to prevent it from being reversed. Even in the 4 set link https://a.co/d/akqjqDK you see where the press release button is, there's a screw, and only one of the pictures shows a press button. The screw only removes the head on one side but can't be put on the other side. So maybe I have an older version set. Maybe thats why it was $6 ea instead of $10... The pads came off in my messy tote one time and i've lost one or two because I didn't know that could happen, I keep an eye on them now to not lose more.
**I finally made the jump and removed the end pin, and reversed the head, and turned it into a spreader. So out of the 4, I can convert 2 of them to spreaders.

Price aside, I've used the longer ones to install many under desk drawers and so many other uses.
Like a extra set of hands to line every think up just perfectly and then screw in.

I've been using the same two 6 in quick grips for three years. Never had a pad come off. Didn't even realize they came off. The harbor freight Pittsburgh ones tho, those pads fall off before I even get home from the store. These are my favorite clamps, mostly because they always work and can squeeze stuff real tight.

Do you mean flipping the heads, converting the clamp to a spreader? Yup, they do that. In fact they do that easier than any other clamp I've owned. Simple matter of pushing the big black button on the clamp head and moving it to the other end of the bar. Easy peasy.
My 25 yr old Irwin clamps are still going strong and have all of the pads. It's nice that they are removable. Will be picking up some more and hope the quality is equal to the old ones.
