Hi all, does anybody have a name of a supplier of clamps for my pushpit rail. It is 25mm dia rail and I want to bolt a piece of board to it. So i am looking for a clamp with a flat on one side. Hope this makes sense. RPP

clamp for rail
If any help, Magma (USA manufacture) barbeque table clamps were available in my local Chandlery, not cheap but good quality.So was the table but a bit pricey, so, I made up a table from one of those bamboo cutting boards and added fiddles to avoid losing the implements and dishes!
Swivels upright inside the pushpit when not in use.

Like this - AFI mounting clamp?
I got my last one from Salty John of this parish but I don't know whether he still sells them.
Salty John's website is here.

Hi Rigpigpaul,
Link took a bit of searching for the Magma clamps which have some plastic but also s/s.
Very solid and tough materials.
Tradewinds suggestion might be good too,perhaps he can describe how strong they are?
Here is the link:

good luck with the project, the little table I made has transformed al fresco cooking!
The magma clamps come with inserts for thinner rails.

Yes, they are very popular for mounting AIS antennas to the pushpit rail.

Well, I've got 2 x 55w solar panels (combined) mounted on a tube with two of these. I'm on my second set after 10 years - the 1st set had to be destroyed when I replaced the aluminium brackets holding the solar panels.
Highly recommended.
