Given the following:
1. A hollow tube 0.875" O.D. with a 0.750" I.D.
2. A clam shell circular clamp 0.875" wide.
3. Two No. 8-32 screws securing the 2 halves of the clamp onto the tube.
4. Screws are torqued to 20 lb-in.
I am looking for how much weight that can be supported by the clamp (before twisting loose) when the weight is 4" from the center of the tube and connected perpendicular to the clamp. Assuming a rigid connection between the weight and the clamp.
Thanks for your help.
