I think it was NAPA we ordered them from, ordered two. While Randi was picking them up the guy took them out of a box with many. She asked him if he had to order the whole box just to supply the two. He did. She offered him something like $2 each for the rest and he sold them to her =)

Subject: [FlyRotary] Gates SB Clamps Question for Tracy, etc.

I remember seeing Tracy’s RV-8 w/20B (many years ago now), and I was intrigued then to see him using the Gates SB heat shrink hose clamps. Since he / some of you have probably been using them for a while now; I was curious what you thought about them as a product, etc.

Thanks for any comments.

I looked at them, but at 5 times the cost of a good worm drive clamp, I decided that I could live with the weight at least until I've debugged the installation. :-)
