Pony Jorgensen

Pony Jorgensen is an iconic American manufacturer of professional clamping, woodworking, and assembly tools with a legacy spanning more than 120 years.

The company’s story began in 1903 in Chicago, Illinois. Founder Adele Holman joined forces with Danish cabinetmaker Hans Jorgensen and tool salesman Marcus Russ to establish a business that would redefine standards in woodworking. Jorgensen’s breakthrough innovation—a handscrew clamp engineered with durable steel adjusting screws—quickly became an indispensable staple in woodworking workshops worldwide.

Over the decades, the portfolio expanded to include the legendary Pony pipe clamps, heavy-duty ductile iron C-clamps, F-clamps, parallel bar clamps, and quick-action clamping mechanisms. Today, the brand brings together time-tested manufacturing traditions and cutting-edge ergonomics and performance.
