    Simply a nice tool with unlimited applications. The wire can be copper, stainless, or even a hanger from dry cleaning.

    I have a wire clamping tool, that does a similar job. This looks like a better design in some ways than the one I have. The issue with all of these is not the fact that they clamp or how they clamp because they all do a similar job once you learn how to use them, and the work well. The issue is, that they are a pain in the butt to use in a hole, to clamp or repair a pipe unless you can get access to the whole thing, and have a big area to work in. This might be better due to the design, would be interesting to get or make something similar for limited access areas.

    I blew up my house the first time but now I think I have a feel for it. I inflated my tyres at a garage and they had used this method. When I was coiling the air tube I damn near ripped my finger of cos they left the sharp ends exposed.
  • Thank you very much! It's an very good idea. But center your camera better, it is difficult to follow the video, if the important details were unvisible :) Often I have to clamp tubes like this, I'll try it too. Thank you ! Tobias Degner, Leipzig, Deutschland (excause my bad english!)

    funny thing :) In Russia, every gas welder, builder, plumber knows how to make this work without tools. Very simple Russian method. Only the hands, the laws of physics, and a minimum of effort. A fast and very reliable. The number of turns of the wire and compressive strength - Unlimited.

    There are 2 other similar tools on the market that I know of, the Clamptite and Handee clamp. I like the Clamptite best.

    common parts found in a hardware store...or McMaster Carr...
  • Very elegant tool but not to be used with too fragile pipes, or should we say beware of adjusting the strength of tightening to the rΓ©sistance of The pipe especially If It works in an highly vibrating surrounding (a car engine for example).

    Why? This seems like a disproportionate amount of work and effort compared to what already exists and works just fine. Not to mention how you would even do it in real worl application rather then on a nice open table.
