Rockwell RK9000 Jawhorse



When you have a job to do that requires a second set of hands, you can turn to the Rockwell Jawhorse portable workstation clamping system. Whether you’re sheetrocking, setting fence posts, or constructing an outdoor playhouse for your children, this unique hands-free portable workstation will help you get the job done.

Whether you’re an occasional Mr Fix-It or a professional contractor, the Jawhorse will clamp virtually anything you can think of. The Jawhorse’s serious clamping power lets you accomplish tasks that normally require two people on your own.

The strong and versatile Jawhorse can replace your workbenches, sawhorses, clamps, bench vises, your neighbor and much more. You can use it to hold work materials in place as you tackle jobs like setting fence posts, hanging doors, installing crown moldings, and placing new sheetrock overhead. Even odd-shaped objects like engine blocks can fit neatly in the Jawhorse’s grip.

The Jawhorse features a trademarked hands-free foot pedal that lets you apply up to one metric ton (2,200 pounds) of force, so you don’t have to worry about materials slipping while you work. And the jaws can be opened up to 37-inches wide, which is enough to hold most doors securely in place. This gives you maximum flexibility on the job.

The Jawhorse also eliminates the need for individual saw stands and complicated vices. A multitude of different saws can be locked into the sturdy jaws on this station, allowing you to make precise cuts quickly and safely without any awkward balancing of large boards or one-handed saw operations required. Patented rubber pads help keep you from denting or scratching wood the way you might using traditional vice clamps, making the Jawhorse ideal for finish work.

The Jawhorse features a solid construction made entirely of steel along with an extra-wide stance, providing exceptional strength and stability in a wide variety of situations. There aren’t any moving plastic parts to break. And with a unique, three-legged design, the Jawhorse is easier to balance on uneven terrain than traditional four-legged sawhorses and mobile workbenches.

The Jawhorse is incredibly simple to use. You just set it up, lock it in place, and clamp your project materials or tools down. This quick and easy setup makes the Jawhorse ideal for use on remote worksites and for people who don’t have the space in their busy home or apartment for a permanent workbench.

When not in use, the Jawhorse folds down to a compact 29 x 14 x 13 inches for easy transport or storage in a small closet. And weighing in at just 43 pounds, it is easy to lift in and out of work rigs.

When unfolded, an integrated roller makes it incredibly easy to move around the workshop or the jobsite. There are holes in two of the three feet so that you can choose to bolt the Jawhorse down for frequent use in your workshop or on big job sites that require more permanence.
