Gauging interest: Brass cable housing clamps

[Eric Marth]

Hello friends — I recently found some nice brass cable housing clamps. The manufacturer liked my pictures and asked if I'd be interested in importing some for other cyclists. 

I love the idea but I'm just not sure how many I could sell. 

The clamps are $10/each before shipping costs are factored in. They're made from solid brass in the UK. It's a two-piece clamp, bolt, two washers and an 8mm hex nut. These were designed to hold fuel pipes on old British race cars! But they fit 5mm housing very well. 

If you're interested, drop me a line and let's see if we can get some nice clamps on our non-aero cables. I think they're work anywhere you need to clamp your housing.

Count me in for a couple!

Not sure if my last message went through or not since I don’t think my email had been approved for the list yet. I’m interested.

Hi all — I've heard nothing from my clamp maker contact in the UK for over two weeks now. I was hoping to import a batch of these and get them over to you all. 

The maker, Heath Verrall, has been quick to respond to past emails and it was his suggestion that I import some. I worry something has happened that's keeping him from his correspondence. 

At any rate, here's a link to where I found the clamps:

https://www.britishpipeclamps.co.uk/product/double-3-16-pipe-fasteners-brass/

I had to exchange several emails with Heath to order just a few clamps and arrange shipping. If you have any luck reaching him do let me know! They're nice little clamps, indeed.
