We have two of these on our 2015 robot holding a shaft that is passing through a piece of rectangular tubing. Sadly the drilling of the 1.25" hole got a little harry and we needed to spend some quality time with with a file in order to get the rectangular tube smooth enough to rivet the plates on. And locating the plates on either side of the tube so that they lined up perfectly was probably more hassle than it was worth. Would have been a great place to use a VersaBlock or something similar that takes care of the locating problem.
