Key Features
Automatic Clamping Automaxx dual-action clamping grips the board and adjusts to material thickness in one motion. That cuts setup time and helps you drill consistent pocket holes without fiddling with clamp pressure every time. Wide Material Range The Kreg Pocket-Hole Jig 720PRO handles stock from 1/2 inch to 1-1/2 inch thick. That gives woodworkers one pocket-hole jig for common cabinet parts, face frames, trim builds, and thicker project material. Built-Out Workstation The included docking station, clamp, onboard storage, and dust collection setup turn the jig into a more stable, more efficient workstation. If you drill a lot of repeat holes, that matters fast.
Overview
The Kreg Pocket-Hole Jig 720PRO, Model KPHJ720PRO, is a premium pocket-hole jig built for faster, more consistent joinery in wood projects. This is a pocket-hole jig designed for creating pocket-hole joints in material from 1/2 inch to 1-1/2 inch thick. It is aimed at woodworkers, cabinet builders, trim carpenters, and serious DIY users who want quicker setup, better support, and fewer mistakes when drilling repeat pocket holes.
The big story here is the Automaxx dual-action clamping system. Instead of stopping to adjust clamp pressure for every board thickness, the jig automatically clamps and adjusts to the material. In real use, that means less trial and error and more repeatable results, especially when you are moving between plywood, solid wood, and face-frame stock during the same project.
Kreg also built the 720PRO around job flow, not just the drill guides. The GripMaxx anti-slip clamping surface helps keep the workpiece from shifting while you drill, which is one of the easiest ways to ruin hole placement. The quick-set drill bit and stop collar make setup faster than older style systems that require more measuring and fiddling before you can start boring holes.
Construction is set up for long service life. The body uses impact-resistant polymer, while the frame is reinforced with steel. That gives the jig enough toughness for regular bench use without making it overly complicated. Kreg also calls out a lifetime drill guide warranty, which matters because the drill guide is the part that takes the wear in a pocket-hole jig.
What separates the 720PRO from a basic jig is that it ships as more of a complete workstation. The included Kreg Docking Station adds material support wings, extra storage, and a repeatable positioning stop for repetitive drilling. If you build face frames, cabinet boxes, shelves, or production-style project parts, that stop and added support can save a lot of time and help keep every part drilled in the same place.
Dust handling is also better thought out than on simpler jigs. The integrated chip ejection port and included vacuum adapter let you connect to a shop vacuum to keep chips moving out of the way. That helps visibility, reduces cleanup, and makes it easier to keep drilling smoothly when you are running multiple parts back to back.
As a package, this set includes more than just the base jig. You also get the docking station, a pocket-hole jig clamp, a 3/8 inch easy-set pocket-hole drill bit, a 6 inch square driver bit, an easy-set stop collar, a hex wrench and gauging tool, dust collection components, sample screws, and a downloadable project plan. That makes it a better fit for someone who wants a ready-to-work system instead of starting with a stripped-down jig and adding parts later.
If you only drill a few holes once in a while, a smaller jig may do the job. But if you build furniture, cabinetry, storage projects, or repeat assemblies often, the 720PRO earns its keep with faster setup, better workpiece support, and fewer interruptions. That is who this tool is really for.

Pro Tip
If you are drilling a stack of identical parts, set up the docking station stop once and leave it there for the whole run. That is the fastest way to keep hole location consistent and avoid small alignment errors that show up during assembly.
