what is the maximum diameter of the clamps at the ends?
Asked by Dave July 5, 20171
AnswerI'd say you could get them around a 1-1/2" post.

Asked by steveb624 May 15, 20171
AnswerYes, but you can't see to tighten the clamp at the bottom if it is in the water. You have to do it by feel.

Here's how to do it better, cheaper
August 18, 2020
The pole is aluminum (not Galvanized steel), which is nice since it will never corrode. The end clamps, however, are low-quality galvanized. Ours rusted and fell off after one winter. I then replaced those with 1.5" dia Stainless Steel Muffler Clamps (buy from local auto parts store or online such as eBay) for a few bucks each. Now it works perfectly. Given the chance to do it all over again, I'll just buy some aluminum tubing, flatten two ends, drill holes (aluminum is soft and easy to drill), and use stainless steel 1.5" dia muffler clamps. That will cut the cost in half and it will last forever. Note: put some silicone grease on the threads and you'll never have trouble getting them off in the future.

The brackets were the wrong size and could not be used with our Tommy Dock heavy duty metal posts.

Clamps to post too small!
April 27, 2020
Most dock poles are 2 “ in diameter. This brace comes with clamps that are for 1 1/2 “ posts. Stupid just to save 5 cents! I now have to go buy the proper size clamps before I can use it. The braces are very light weight and over priced. Not happy with purchase.

July 23, 2019
Bought one last year order these this year. The hardware was cheaper, the ends were not rounded so you could not install on angle without bending the bracket. Then you could not titan them up. Hardware is pathetic. Better off making your own supports. DO NOT BUY!!!!

July 23, 2019
Cannot be mounted at an angle as in the picture. When mounted at an angle the support bar invades the bracket area that fits over the vertical dock pipe. You would have to grind part of the support bar away and that would weaken the whole system.

April 30, 2019
There are 2 critical issues with this product. 1) I could not insert the clamps into the pipe; the pipe was interfering with the flange of the posts which were not rounded per the drawing included and 2) You have to assemble and tightened the bolt while it is underwater! Not really possible in the early Wisconsin spring. If the flanges would have been rounded per the print and if the clamp hardware would include an easy tightening system, it could work. While trying to make it work, one brace fell to the bottom of the lake and it was way too cold to dive 4 ft to pick it. I hope the water will warm up within the 30 day return policy so I can retrieve it and return it for credit! PS. I rarely send comments or rating!

THE CLAMPS ON THE ENDS OF THIS PIPE ARE USELESS, GO TO YOUR LOCAL PARTS STORE AND BUY A PAIR OF 1 3/8" MUFFLER CLAMPS, BEND EACH END OF THIS PIPE 45 DEGREES AND USE THE MUFFLER CLAMPS TO HOLD IT TIGHT TO THE DOCK PIPE AND IT WORKS PERFECTLY!
