Does anyone know about the quality of those? Good timing for me too as I have a few that have finally worn out after 20 years.

I have a couple of those from Rockler, a handful of the SM and a bunch of the Klemmsia. The Rockler ones are lower quality and are stickier in terms of how smoothly they slide up and down the bar and how easily open and close. But for the price it's hard to beat.

I bought 12 of them a few years ago. They hold well. I consider them "seconds" quality, with Klemsia "firsts" and some others (with aluminum bars) "thirds".

Huhm, 20$ CAD? I knew our dollar was weak against the old greenback, but that seems a bit extreme.
