I have no idea what this clamp is called or where to buy them. It is on
the leg of a photographer's tripod. The leg is about 1 1/2" in diameter
and would require good clamping strength. It's one of 2 clamps on the
leg and they hold an aluminum clip board so that the photographer has a
writing platform.
Anyone know what it's called?
Thanks!

Looks like a clip for hanging a broom/mop/shovel on the wall.

Bad experiences come from poor decisions. So do good stories.

I've always heard it called a capture clamp. It is made for holding mops to a wall rack.

If you can't find them locally, they're available from a few different sellers on eBay.

There are some nicer ones for fishing poles. I think they are generally made from rubber and do not mar the finish.
