Have you ever been caught out by the rain whilst playing your game of golf? Perhaps
you’d rather not carry a heavy golfing umbrella from hole to hole, having to put it
down every time you wanted to take a shot. The uClamp, with or without its extension
pole (depending on the length of your umbrella) is the answer. The uClamp, unlike
any other device, will allow you to attach an umbrella of your choosing, securely
to your golf bag trolley/kaddy. Where some other umbrella holders use screws to
secure the umbrella into place, which may damage the umbrella handle and affect
its warranty, the uClamp uses a clamping/gripping action to avoid this. The uClamp
Caters for players of most heights and is especially handy for women and younger
participants. An umbrella, attached with of without the extension pole, will provide
shelter even when taking shots, pulling or pushing the Kaddy/trolley. When not in use,
the uClamp will allow the umbrella to be stored neatly along the side of your trolly/kaddy.
It can even be used as a ‘sunshade’.
The uClamp is a clever, lightweight, small and neat device designed to overcome a
major problem encountered by golfers on golf courses. The uClamp can be fitted on
to most golf bag trolleys and kaddys in seconds, no tools required. Once in place,
you will have the reassurance that allows you to focus on your game.
Now you really can, ‘swing-in-the-rain’. |

How Does It Work
|
Each uClamp set comprises two clamps that work independently of each
other. Both clamps are held together by spindle and two tightening
knobs, one at each end. Each tightening knob controls the ‘clamping’
pressure of the clamp nearest to it. The uClamp will allow two
completely different sized/shaped poles (or the frame of your
golf-bag trolley/kaddy) to be attached to each other at whatever
angle one chooses, around a 360 arc.
The extension pole has ‘two sets’ of uClamps attached to it at
either end. The extension pole is attached to the handle-bar
section. An umbrella (its size is the choice of the user) is fixed
to the uClamp at the other end of the pole. Both uClamps allow 360
degree rotation. Rotate pole with bottom uClamp until vertical
position is found, then rotate umbrella with top uClamp for fine
positioning. Tighten both uClamps to maintain position. Height adjustments can be made by repositioning either one or both uClamps along the length
of the extension pole. |
If used without extension pole
Attach one Clamp section of the uClamp to the frame section of
the golf bag trolley/kaddy, near to the hand grip, and the other to the umbrella. Once the desired angle
has been found, generally in a vertical position, lock uClamp into place by tightening the
two turn wheels/knobs at both ends of the device.
