In this review, the author shows how to make a simple clamp. But not manual, but with an electric drive. As a drive, you can use a screwdriver or drill.
To manufacture the clamp itself, you will need a piece of a profile (square) pipe, a pair of nuts, a stud with a diameter of 8-10 mm, as well as a small segment of a round steel pipe.
First of all, cut a piece of profile of the desired length, and cut out two "petals" of a triangular shape, which then need to be welded together.
In the place of welding with the help of a grinder, the author makes a slot for fixing the wire. As a result, we got the "body" of the clamp.
The main stages of work
At the next stage, it will be necessary to weld a regular hexagonal nut inside the clamp body (see photo below).
Next, you will need to drill a hole in the back of the clamp and grinder to cut part of the side walls of the profile pipe. Then the author welds a handle from a round pipe.
Well, then it remains only with the help of a grinder to clean the welds. Next, we insert a piece of a stud into the drilled holes, one end of which needs to be inserted into the cartridge, and you can tighten the wire clamps.
For details on how to make an electric drive clamp yourself, we recommend that you watch the video on our website.
