Poor design [Posted on 2006-07-20] Poor design:
1) The 1/2" pipe clamp has very thin and weak springs pushing the clutch plates; without the pipe, plates/spring would easily fall out.
2) The idea of eliminating the need for threaded pipe is nice but poorly executed; the clutch plates do not hold the pipe firmly thus allowing the clamp's upper part to spin as you rotate the handle
3) The plastic clampshell cover is very flimsy which broke during shipment allowing the clutch plates & springs from all 4 of my clamps to fall out!
