Andy,

We broke one of these couplings while running around the field on Saturday.

The non-threaded part broke. The clamp portion broke off, in the direction of the centerline. One of the screws that clamped it in place was missing, so that's what we thought caused the problem. We're going to put on some lock washers so the screws stay in place.

Andy B.
