Review on 🐏 11774 Big Horn Collectors with Enhanced Diameter by Robert Rick

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Do not over tighten or the latch will slip off the strap

It works and fits exactly as I expected but I am not thrilled with this clamp and would not recommend buying it. 1 main reason. The picture of it (nowhere in the description or details) shows or says what it's made of. By that I mean that in the picture it looks like a steel or medal clip that will hopefully be riveted together. However, I just got my clip in the mail and found that it is made of fiber material and is not riveted but stamped around the band. So when I tried to tighten the band around the DC bag (dust bag), the latch slipped off the band. So the first time I used it, I already took this clamp to the workbench to fix it. It's easy to fix, but it stinks at the same time. Screwdriver and hammer to secure and tighten the punch. It is impossible to tighten this clamp with steel bands riveted together as tightly as possible. But it fits and seems to be working so far. Worst case I'll buy another one or leave this thing for MacGyvering. I give it 3 stars because it works and it's exactly the size they say. However, I do not recommend using steel straps. Yes, and it's also harder to use in DC because it keeps wanting to curl up. Maybe over time it will get used to the normal usage form instead of being folded.
