Makes my wife's projects possible.

"I'm not a carpenter, will never claim to be. But several years ago, probably 10 at least, my wife had an idea that required bringing wood together. I initially bought the mini pocket hole tool, but realized the K4 would be a better match. Learned a lot, finished the project and put the Kreg tools away. 10 plus years later, another state, another house - another project. An old home has old problems, and we had to build a small wall over cement blocks. The K4 system was the key to completion. But - I had to go back over the instructions. Adjustments made, off to work. The first hole had blue plastic coming out with the saw dust. I knew that wasn't good. Upon investigation, I had manipulated the drill guide block, but didn't catch that I had moved it to the lowest position, resulting in drilling through the base. The tools work well, they allow me to find a solution to my wife's expectations. I just need to set up a "Hey Dummy" reminder to double check each adjustment, especially when there are years between uses."

Didn’t expect to use it as much as I do

"I got this as a christmas present from my family and didn’t expect to use it as much as I do. Part of that is just how easy it is to pull out and set up. I keep it on a cabinet shelf above my workbench and anytime I need it I just pull it out. It sets up in seconds, and after buying screws in various sizes and lengths there’s basically nothing I can’t use it on. Very impressed."

K 4 Rubber tip deterioration

"I have the 1st original kreg jig, still works great, bought the k 4 , the rubber tip deteriorated, you have to purchase the whole toggle clamp when all you need is the tip, the toggle clamp works fine, it doesn't make sense whatsoever, Kreg boast about the durability of their products, yes the plasticjigs are durable, the old hard rubber tips outlast the newer softer rubber tips, Kreg didn't plan on these tips to deteriorate bit I do think Kreg should offer a snap on replacement tip of better quality, I enjoy Kregs products, Shelf pin jig, hidden deck screw jig, and quality fasteners for various applications, The deterioration of the tip is a fail Kreg didn't count on happening."

KWM C. (4/5)

Basic and reliable

"I'm new to pocket screws and wasn't sure they would be the joinery method of choice for me. I used this jig to assemble drawers made from 3/4" plywood, and they worked as advertised. I wanted to use dowels, but this jig seemed a more affordable first step. Kreg makes great quality tools and I plan on relying on this jig and their screws until they prove to be the wrong choice. So far, so good."

K4 is a great addition to my shop

"I had the R3 jig for a few years, and drilled a lot of holes with it. My wife bought the K4 for me for Christmas. I love it, so much faster and easier to use when drilling a lot of holes. I built 12 drawers this weekend using it and it cut my time by more than half."

John B. (5/5)

Very good support

"I have to say that I am extremely impressed with the response I received from Billy in customer support. Less than 24 hours after posting my review he reached out to me and a new K4 is on it's way to me."

Q&A

does kreg sell a replacement clamp pad for the K4? The black rubber on mine disintegrated.
You will need the NK3066. https://www.kregtool.com/support/faqs-product-info/replacement-parts/toggle-clamp/NK3066.html
Are the Kreg pocket hole jigs good for hardwoods? All I see in the videos is softwood.
Yes, you can use it with hardwood. You will want to use the fine threaded screws.
Can i still get a micro screw insert for a K-4
At this time, we no longer have the Micro block that works with the K4 jig.
Is this price us or Canadian funds ?
All prices you see on our site are in USD.
All the videos show short length upright stock in the jig. Will the K4 support pocket holes on the end of a longer piece of stock that is horizontal?
Yes, you can clamp the K4 on the end of a long board and drill your hole.
I have a K4 pocket hole jig. I broke the black piece that goes on the end of the tensioning device. Is that item available for purchase separately? I cannot find it on any websites.
To get any parts, please contact our Tech Support by email at technicalsupport@kregtool.com or by phone at 800-447-8638 M-F 8-5 CST.
I’m a novice trying to learn a skill. I currently own a Kreg 320 pocket hole jig. I’ve had mixed results with it (clamp slipping, sliding while drilling) I want a better clamping alternative. What would be your suggestions? I’m left handed ( I’m not sure if that matters) I have made a bench and a table now it want to (try) make furniture w/ draws in cabinets
You will want to make sure your clamping that jig quite tight so it does not move.
Is the K4 being made anymore?
Yep. We sell the K4 right on our website.
Is there a plug cutter system for the K4
At this time, we do not have a plug cutter for the K4.
Can the dust shield for the K4 available for purchase?
At this time, we do not have a dust port for sale.
