Here’s another great Aussie tool that I have been using in my shop for about four years. There are times that no other clamping device but this unique tool from Triton meets will do the job.

Read this excellent review on the Triton SJA200 here at Online Tool Reviews.

It appears to be an interesting site for a few other tool reviews also Don.

Thanks for the “heads up” on this great looking and very functional clamp system.

One thing I could not find in the review. It says the jaw can be reversed…Can the Super Jaw be used to Spread? Like sometimes needed on a cabinet to straighten or square up? Maybe not.

Yes, Jack, it’s a good site for tool reviews. I refer to it frequently.

To answer your question about the SuperJaws, no. I’m quit sure that it cannot be reversed. I’m in Vancouver at the moment, so can’t run down to my shop to check. I’ll send an email to a friend who dem’s for Triton and ask him the same question.

Don -

Very interesting – I like the whole Triton line. Very nice equipment.

I will be sure not to let my wife see this new link (OnLine Tool Reviews) added to my bookmarks – I think I am in enough trouble as is!

I’ve been looking at that thing for a few months. It seems to me to be a solution looking for a problem. Thanks for the link to the review. I’m going to have to build a subfloor trapdoor system in the shop to store things. Think of it, it would be like live wells on a boat. Under this door we have the Leigh FMT…and here, Superjaws. Now, just move your feet so I can lift this trapdoor and…”Mot Jr., get out from under Daddy’s tablesaw!”

I checked with my friend. The answer is no, it does not spread. The sliding section does mount in reverse, but this is to extend the reach of the jaws.

Was that meant to read ..to hide things (from your wife), rather than store things? LOL

It looks like a modern version of a shaving horse, Don. Same principle, except you are allowed to sit on the shaving horse while applying foot pressure.

Thanks Don,
It looks pretty handy, another tool to put on my ”want it” list.
I’ve been going Ossie lately. First a Triton wall storage rack, & then a Triton router.
You’ve been a strong influence on some of my purchases lately. ;)
