What an odd shaped clamp. How does it work?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003eThis clamp is designed to be a low clearance, medium duty clamp that's easy to install. That's why the ends are open- it gives you more room to get up close to things, and it makes it easier to install the clamp. The sides just pop apart and you put the clamp where you want. Usually, all you have to do is remove one bolt and loosen the other to wrap the clamp around a tube.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2. What can I hold with it?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003eAny round, straight tube that is the right diameter. We an ever-growing library of clamp sizes. It's important the tube is straight for the 1\/2 inch (12.7mm) where the clamp is attached. The tube can curve around in other places, but where the clamp is attached needs to be straight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3. How strong it it?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003ePretty strong, we call it light duty because the four-bolt Double-Ended Clamps are meant for most applications. It's designed for versatility and ease of installation more than maximum strength. It's designed to hold light accessories (under 2 lbs, 1kg or so). It definitely not designed for attaching critical things like steering components, heavy accessories, or exit assist handles. What it can handle strongly depends on the amount of leverage you put on it of course, so the overall design matters a lot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4. Can I use it on things that aren't the \"proper\" size?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003eUnfortunately, no. For the clamp to grip well, it needs to be gripping something that is round, straight, and the rated size. Fortunately, that is usually possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eADDITIONAL INFO\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tabberlive\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tabbertab\" title=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachined from 6061 aluminum, anodized black.

The first is to loosen the bolts and slide the clamp over the tube(s).
