Rating: - Cost of pegs.!!!
I aquired an older used workmate and find this price for replacement pegs excessive!!. They drive people to throw away still usable gear and just buy new. Lame business practices in todays society that condones just throwing itmes away because it makes more sense to put that money into a new product. No wonder our economy is stuck.. It is geared to people throwing away and buying new.

These little peg grips are what they are. They are peg grips for a Black and Decker Workmate. I was given my workmate by my father in-law and it did not have all four peg grips. These came quickly and I did not need to trim or sand to get them to fit. Now that I have all four peg grips, the workmate is a lot more versatile. For a little more the $6, pick up a pack.

Rating: - B&D Workmate Swivel Grip Peg 4 Pk-Updated solution!
Update! I put each upside down in a vise, folded a piece of sandpaper along its length to make a belt of two sided sandpaper about 1" wide. I then see-sawed the sandpaper back and forth evenly around all sides of the peg and test fitted until it fits fine now. Certainly not "fits all" out of the package but it was not difficult to make it fit without ruining the round shape. I updated my rating to 3 stars.

Just received this product. Package says it fits ALL B&D Workmates. NOT SO, it is about 1/32 larger than the holes in my workmate. The pegs that came with the workmate fit loosely, these don't even go into the holes. Not sure if it is worth sending them back or try to modify them to work. Don't recommend them.

If you don't have the swivel grip pegs for a workmate? Your workmate is useless. I recently bought a 300 workmate at an auction and it didn't have the pegs. The very first thing that I did was to get online. I went to amazon.com and ordered the pegs. I was doing some sanding and I needed them to hold on to the wood. Some of the wood pieces where irregular but, the swivel pegs work great at holding the pieces still and in place so that I could get them sanded.

Purchased the pegs for replacement on an older workmate portable bench. Probably better than the original pegs. Same size as the originals--worked great.
