Hi,

I'm trying to source these, person who wants them isn't massively in the know. They suggested 300 odd AMPS (yeah I know). But they need to be 'flat'. Pic included.

[ElectriciansForums.net] Flat clamps - Crocodile Clips??
 
Look like jump lead clamps.
Have you tried somewhere like Halfords?



(Thanks to your username, my brain is singing “do the Bartman” over and over in my head…. Cheers)
 
Thanks, they kept saying to me crocodile clips, which they certainly are not. I've tried a few places, plus internet, but no joy. Have contacted a welding supplier on the advice above.
 
Seeing that welding clamp, it’s uninsulated, and a lot of heavy copper.

The picture in OP still reminds me of a jumper cable. The groove in the centre of the jaw to go over a round pin of a battery.

Ok reread OP, and he does ask for a “flat” alternative.

It might help if we knew what the application was for?
 
OP, what's the application? Why do they need to be flat contact areas?

I don't think the ops ones are welding, they look like mediocre Chinese jump pack/start battery type ones.

No they aren't welding clamps. But he only showed them as an example of the contact face that he wanted.

Spanners for swa glands
Absolutely correct they hold water, shrouds are totally unnecessary. 20s is 24mm spanner, 20 large is 30mm spanner.
