Pawn shop & Tractor Supply score...

[Jason280]

May be worth checking the local Tractor Supply, a few have been clearancing out there welding clamps. Ended getting all the clamps below for $48....

...and one of the local pawn shops had these 5" Hilti flap discs for $2.50/each.

What brand are they, and what region are you in? I'm going to call my store, that's a great deal!

I could see heading to TS after the gym. LOL Another "don't need right now" item or 10.

Looking at the tags, they appear to be their house brand. More than likely, made in China. I have a few pairs of them I bought to weld with, so I don't care about getting welding berries stuck to the threads or ruining them.

Found them, not on sale at my location

The local TSC stores around me have a clearance section, always walk back and check it out. You never know what you'll find.

Yeah, its pretty much the only reason I go to Tractor Supply. They also have the recessed style mounts on clearance...

https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/smartstraps-heavy-duty-recessed-mount-d-ring-1667-lb

The medium duty mounts rang up $0.99/ec, and the HD style were $2.60.

Wow! That a great deal! BCD.

I looked at some of those at TSC today. Yes, China made. A friend of mine has a few of the big 'F' clamps and they're not bad. Would be a lot better if the screw was copper instead of steel.

They (Fountain Hills AZ) had a couple sets, but not what you bought.

I bought a couple of the imported F style from Princess Auto. Should have known better. The thread tolerances were so poor when you tightened the screw on the workpiece it jammed and wouldn’t UNSCREW.

Looks like you have a nice rack to hang those all on, or slide off

I just bought the 2.5 gallon 41% Glyphosphate for 20 bucks at tsc on their clearance shelf.

As much as I don't love using it, that is good deal. I'll stop by mine for that alone. Thanks

Add some antisieze to the threads, should help keep them from locking up...

Good advise, but on close inspection the screw’s threads were poorly cut. I returned them.

The winning continues....

The cover was even cheaper, ended up being $5.
