So I read that some People here really liked this clamp http://www.tennispro.eu/catalog/str...machines/replacement-central-metal-clamp.html so I was wondering if anyone tried this 4 tooth clamp from the same seller? http://www.tennispro.eu/catalog/str...nce-centrale-de-rechange-metal-badminton.html They Only have the 4 tooth version at the danish store which I would prefer to buy from. Any inputs are welcome ☺️
I actually just ordered one to try out for myself I can probably give u a review in 10 days time, if u would like?
Money right down the drain. Sorry if the videos aren't the best - I only had my Huawei P9 Lite available.. I tried my best to capture some of the flaws, but I'll describe them here too. The clamping mechanism seemed very smooth as they arrived, however as I tested them they could only hold 6 kg.. I tried to tighten the clamp, which was a 10 minute struggle as they are crap, but I got it done. I tightened them a lot, and they became really "choppy" as I closed them. When I then tried to test them with a string, they just destroyed the string and wasn't even able to hold 26 lbs. The construction of them seem really bad aswell. I have been using these: http://www.tactic.dk/product.asp?product=6183, which aren't the best, but waaaay better than the TennisPro. If you want to string beyond 13 kg with those, you'll get a little bit of string flattening, however I definitely recommend those over these. I will try my best to get my money back for the clamps...
Well that sucks, Hope You are able to get your money back, ty for the feedback though, I will stay clear of those clamps.
I'm using a Gamma version of the 5-teeth clamp you posted, those work very well, I don't think the price is much different. I have no issues holding 28lbs + 10% PS even with very thin NBG-98 or BG-66UM. The clamps mechanisms still run very smooth, on occasion I need to clean the diamond coated friction pads to keep things working well.
They are really expensive in Europe. A pair of 5-tooth goes for 260 euros - 4-tooth goes for 400 euros, which is just absolutely ridiculous...
it could be the tolerance was designed for tennis string. have you tried say putting a namecard at the jaw to help close up the gap?
Pretty certain that's not the problem. If you look at the last video I tried to show how it clamped the string so hard together that it became flat :/ It clamps the string a crazy lot, but it can't hold anything..
Exactly! I want to believe that I got a faulty one, because who is ever going to be needing a clamp that can only hold around 6-7kg? :/
Oh wow I never knew they were so expensive :/ Did you try cleaning the grippers, could be grease/oil from the factory to prevent rusting.
