Spring Clamps

[caraudioguy2100]

Does anyone know how to make these have more tension holding the transistors to the heatsink ?

The amp was blown and all of the clamps have barley any tension on them and they do not clamp the transistors tightly to the heatsink

Try a vise or drill holes & attach screws & bolts. Don't forget the insulation washers.

Tighten like this. Be careful, they can be broken. Wear safety glasses.

I bend them in slightly (pinch the top). Not too far as they can break.
