Fang Clamps and Fang Stops for CNC routing

If you've ever tried to flatten a warped slab, fixture a rough-sawn board, or hold down anything with a bottom too uneven for a vacuum table to seal, you've run into the same wall: top-down clamps eat your tool travel, and double-sided tape or screws alone don't hold up to a router pass. There's a simpler answer that a lot of CNC router shops don't know exists yet: side-bite clamping.

That's what the Fang line is built around. Fang Clamp is the adjustable side, it moves to fit your part and bites into the edge to hold it down. Fang Stop is the fixed side, a sturdier anchor point you set once and clamp against, so your part has something solid to push into while the Fang Clamps do the adjusting.

Fang Clamp

A stainless steel side-bite hold-down for jobs where a vacuum isn't an option. It drives teeth into the edge of your material, locking parts from the side and keeping them put even when the bottom is uneven or rough.

Stainless steel, made in America
Side-bite hold down for uneven or rough material
Mounts anywhere with wood screws or 1/4-20 / M6 on spoilboards, fixture plates, and T-tracks
Comes with a Gridfinity bin so they actually stay organized

The Kit option on the Fang Clamps page is our best-selling and most profitable add-on. It bundles the hardware (screws, washers, stop wedges) along with Fang Stops, so you get a complete setup in one order instead of piecing it together separately.

Fang Stop

A Fang Clamp adjusts to your part. A Fang Stop doesn't move at all, and that's the point. It's a fixed reference edge with the same stainless side-bite teeth, meant to be set once and clamped against, so the rest of your setup has something solid to register off of instead of floating between clamps.
