Trimmer shaft clamp

You know when you see one size fits all you know that yours will be an exception. It does not seem to apply to this. I used it on my Milwaukee 18 volt trimmer it fit perfect. I tried it on my stihl 131 R trimmer and it fit it also. The stihl comes with an attachment point. I was actually testing to see if it did indeed fit it. It’s easy to install and it should work great for years.

It was what I needed and it is working great.

The collar is well designed with a rubber liner that firmly holds the clamp to the trimmer shaft. I use the shoulder strap that comes with my EGO leaf blower to attach to the EGO trimmer collar. The collar can be positioned along the shaft for best balance. However, a word of caution. Because the item does not come with a lock washer, the vibration will cause the nut to loosen and fall off the clamp soon after using the trimmer. The fix is simple: for a few cents, replace the nut with a lock nut. You may have to purchase a new matching bolt. I would have given the device a 5 out of 5 if not for this oversight.

Perfect fit for smaller Weed Eaters. Overpriced but a nice device for connecting a work strap or harness to a Weed Eater. The manufacturing quality is decent. I think the fastener parts are all stainless steel, which is certainly good. I especially like the (nylon washer) 10mm hex lockout, to fully secure the clamp to the Weed Eater shaft, meaning in addition to the standard threaded nut. It's a good idea and should not damage the Weed Eater over time. I like that you receive two of the metal loops, in case one were to ever break. Again this is best utilized for lighter Weed Eaters. It's easy to assemble. Be exact in measuring the shaft diameter. This product is designed to clamp very well but only when it is clamped to the correct shaft diameter range. Many light duty Weed Eaters come with a molded plastic loop designed for a work strap. If that breaks, this bolt on clamp is a good idea.

this is well made and useful, but it only fits smaller shafts... my pole hedge trimmer has a shaft way too large for this, . I hesitate to give it a ranking since my issue has to do with not reading the specs carefully, but it could be made clearer in the copy. why not make them in multiple sizes? ~and please, use non metric when describing size. There, I feel better.

Works great

Works like it's supposed to
