Any idea where to find these clamps?

Thu Feb 27, 2020 10:21 pm

Hi all

I've just dragged my old steel out of the cupboard for the first time in years. I have a couple of clamps missing for the push pull rods. Anyone know where I can get some more? Pic attached (hopefully)

They look like they came out of electrical connector choc blocks. Iv'e seen these inserts used before, for this application.
Find one or two that fits your rods & remove the screws & push out the connector, and there you have it :D
