Who buys it

Where it earns
its keep

Ditch crews

An exposed mechanism is the thing that fails first down there.

Larger diameters

The ratchet drive is what makes the bigger sizes workable by hand.

Questions people actually ask

Is the ratchet handle included?

No. The ratchet drive shown is not included in the price and is ordered separately.

What is the lead time?

Two to three weeks for all ratchet clamps.

Why the enclosed housing?

It keeps dirt out of the operating mechanism, which is what normally ends a clamp's life in the field.

Sealed mechanism.
Longer life.
