HYCKee MF17 Universial Quick Release Pipe Clamp Mounts with 1/4 Threaded Head for Cameras, Music Stands, Microphone Stands, Motorcycles, Bikes - Black

I bought 2 of these in conjunction with Wolfcraft 4042000 Ceiling Props for attaching my HTC Vive light boxes to. These clamps have the standard camera mount with tilt adjustment. The camera mount disc is rubber padded as are the insides of the clamps. You tighten the clamp using the threaded tension rod to bring the retaining lever toward the clamp and then snap the lever over to keep the clamp secured. The camera mount can be tilted in all directions by (1) using the thumb screw, (2) pulling the mount section and twisting it round and (3) positioning the camera itself. It does the job well. If you need to clamp this to anything less than 15mm diameter though you'll need something to pad it out first. (The clamp appears to widen to 40mm).The only place I could find on my motorbike to attach it to was at the back for a rear view (should I ever feel inclined to do so), however there was nothing at the front suitable, but then I have a mount on my helmet and I didn't get this clamp for that purpose anyway.In terms of build quality, it seems robust enough. Only the lever feels like it could snap if it's particularly tight but loosening the tension rod slightly sorts that out.

Good product! It does the job. It doesn't clamp fully to my shelf, but I have semi-thin shelves so I wouldn't put it down to the product. A downside is that the black screw thing to secure the Base Station in place becomes loose very easily with a slight nudge so bear that in mind, other than that it's a great makeshift product for university living.

If you're working with action cameras, lights and mics there's almost no limit to what you can do with this clamp. For photography and filming it awesome for flat lay and getting a firm mounting position on a pole,stand or handle. I've used this thing on bikes car wheels and it's awesome for capturing unique visuals in hard to reach spots. The spring has a limited strength with a load of about 1kg so it's something to be wary of but its a great addition to a set up since it is light.

Good price and easy to use, works great with my portable camera watched to handlebars of my bike.

The build quality is very poor – thin metal, rough edges, and the clamp doesn’t tighten securely. The 1/4" thread feels weak and wobbly, and I wouldn’t trust this to hold a cigarette or anything safely.It looks better in the photos than it is in reality. Feels like a false economy and not suitable for anything that needs stability or reliability.Don’t waste your money. - mines in the bin - packaging was ok

Has been holding my VR lighthouses up for years now. Works well for that, I wouldn't trust it with a dynamic load though (like a bike handlebar mount), the spring-held rotation mechanism is a bit too loose for that. I also wouldn't use it for anything that I would interact with often (anything with buttons, touchscreen, etc) as, again, it's all a bit lose and would move all over the place.

So much cheaper than many fittings of this type. But note that it is flawed when used on a smooth horizontal bar. I'm using mine mainly on industry standard K&M microphone stands, to support various bits of kit including a K&K guitar pre-amp and an H5 recorder (see attached photos). If the clamp is mounted on a vertical pole/tube it works very well and I can tilt the H5 so that l may easily see the screen. However there are serious limits to its grip on a horizontal tube. For example while it will hold my H5 horizontal and with a modular mic attached, the minute I want to tilt it, or start adding cables, the clamp just slides around the tube. A crimped or serrated tube is fine, finding a way to roughen a smooth tube might help. I haven't tried it on a bike, I'm doubting it would remain stable after hitting a couple of pot holes, without first making sure it has a "grippy" surface on which to clamp it... this is inevitable it's mainly a result of the different radii of the two arms of the clamp - which is designed to accommodate different thickness of tube. It's also worth noting that "Quick Release" does not mean "Quickly Detachable". It releases quickly for immediate adjustment, but takes a few turns of the screw to fit to/remove from a tube. Having said all that, it's well made, easy to use, an excellent bit of kit to keep in your bag and brilliant at the price. I've just ordered 2 more.

My only gripe is the locking plate is made of cheap plastic. It split after a couple of hours use. I replaced with a metal one I took off an old clamp which made this almost perfect - Shame they couldn't make the locking wheel out of metal, otherwise all goodI must add, if I was using this indoors, with little resistance it would be fine as it is. I use it on my motorcycle so I need a very strong, tight grip. I probably tighten it too much. My point is, you shouldn't be able to tighten it too much!

Very cheap piece of rubbish. Does not work as intended. Very poor quality.

The joint between the claw and the mounting screw gives in, if anything heavier is attached to it. In my case had to hold an ipad with extension arm, it didn't work at all. When I attached the arm to the mounting screw and extended it, the joint started to wobble. No good. Not worth the money.

cette pince n'a rien à envier aux produits pour guidon de vélo et action caméras.Pratique , versatile , son corps est fait de plastique ABS et alluminium. La vis est bien extensible.Attention , ce n'est pas pour fixer de grosse charges , mais sera parfait pour vos petites caméras , torches LED et accessoires divers ( petit moniteur par exemple)En un mot , et à ce prix là, c'est franchement bien !Voila! et merci de préciser si mon commentaire vous à été utile ! :)

Le he puesto tres estrellas porque este producto no defrauda su relación calidad-precio pero hay que tener en cuenta varias cosas: primero el precio, es muy barato, luego a considerar que es de plástico excepto unas piezas metálicas que se distinguen perfectamente en la fotografía. Quiero aclarar que el soporte puede girar en todas direcciones, si no lo se puede es porque está muy apretado el tornillo que sujeta la abrazadera con el soporte (desmontando la parte de soporte se ve el tornillo)PUNTO FLOJO: la parte débil del producto está en las muescas de sujeción que al ser de plástico tendrán una vida corta ( no aguanta mucho peso.)

Il precedente supporto (in plastica) con il peso della luce multifunzione (batteria, lettore mp3, cassa e lampada) si è spaccato ed ho acquistato questo per sostituirlo.E' in alluminio, ed siccome ha una specie di ammortizzatore, evita che buona parte delle vibrazioni indebolisca il supporto fino a romperlo.Direi perfetto per un uso diurno, un po' meno se vi capita spesso di andare in giro con la luce accesa di notte perché il fascio di luce "saltella" un po' e può essere fastidioso. [Questo ovviamente perché la mia lampada è un tutt'uno con altre funzioni e quindi il peso di circa 1/2kg la fa sfarfallare.Un ottimo acquisto comunque!
