CLAMP WITHOUT LIMITS
With any standard 1/2” 14-degree dovetail router bit, you can create your own clamp tracks, eliminating the need for expensive aluminum tracks. It’s an entire system designed to give you all the functionality of T-track and T-track accessories, at a fraction of the cost.
Henry Wang, Founder of MICROJIG, needed a better way to secure a tall table saw fence extension. Traditional clamps either got in the way of the cut or limited the height of the fence. By using a dovetail-shaped clamp head, he was able to clamp anywhere he routed a dovetail groove—along the entire fence without limiting it's height.
Versatile track clamps.
- Solid steel bar with the head forged into a 14-degree dovetail profile. Soft rubberized handle for a more comfortable grip.
- Reversible handle provides horizontal clamping pressure without the need for long clamps.

Essential Clamps for Woodworking: The Gear You Need to Tackle Any Glue-Up In the Shop
Got questions?
How are these clamps different from other F-style clamps?
They’re track clamps. The head of the MATCHFIT Dovetail Clamps are forged into a dovetail shape, compatible with any standard ½”–14º dovetail router bit. It moves through the track created by a router bit instead of an expensive metal t-track.
Can’t I just do the same thing with dog holes?
Not really. Dog holes only allow clamps to go through the material with the head sticking out of the bottom. Dog holes confine clamps to fixed locations, which aren’t always where you need them. Dovetail Clamps can be positioned anywhere in a dovetail track, inside the material and out of the way.
Do I need the MATCHFIT Dovetail Router Bit in order to use Dovetail Clamps and Dovetail Hardware?
Only if you value your time. Standard dovetail router bits cut to a sharp point at the top of the groove, which requires a decent amount of sanding after the track is routed. Our router bit incorporates a 1/16” roundover to automatically smooth out the top of the track in a single pass. Less time sanding means more time building.
Why dovetail tracks as opposed to T-slot?
When tightening anything inside of a t-slot, the pressure is applied perpendicular to the material surface, which may weaken the integrity of the track. If a t-slot is cut into plywood, all of the force is concentrated on the small flange at the bottom, causing the plywood to delaminate. With a dovetail profile, the clamping force is distributed evenly along the entire wall of the track for an overall strong hold.
Will MATCHFIT Dovetail Clamps and Dovetail Hardware fit into my Festool track?
The clamps will not, the hardware will, but that’s kind of missing the point. The MATCHFIT system was designed to be compatible with a standard router bit profile, so that users wouldn’t actually need metal tracks. However, some users have been known to file or grind about .005” off of the wide part of the clamp’s elbow and use them in their Festool track. Our advice is to use Festool clamps with Festool tracks, and use Dovetail Clamps for everything else.
Can I use MDF for Matchfit tables and jigs?
Good quality plywood or MDF work just fine for the MatchFit Dovetail System. Because the clamp pressure is normally directly over the clamp head in the groove, the groove is supported and the board does not tear out. There is a video showing the process here: https://youtu.be/oHtOey0-97U
What are the recommended wood type for MatchFit Dovetail Tracks?
3/4" or thicker: Void-free quality plywood (11-ply or more, Baltic birch is best), standard MDF or seasoned hardwood.

It all started in a garage workshop...
Henry was working on an intricate project and was challenged with cutting thin strips on a table saw. His frustration with traditional methods sparked one of the most innovative woodworking tools to come out in decades.
After countless hours and prototypes, the Grr-ripper was born. Henry has continued to innovate, and Microjig now offers multiple unique product lines all over the world.
