Clamps

[UH60LCHIEF]

I searched this one already so I hope it hasn't been posted a billion times already, but I was looking for a source for tube/pipe clamps. I wanted to weld up a longboard rack for my mountain bike out of some tubing that could be removed using some split clamps, but I can't seem to find the ones I'm looking for. They basically look like a piston rod end with one bolt one each side, but are made out of some split tubing. Does anyone have any idea where I might find these?

Maybe these would work ?

Split shaft collars

These are from MSC, but Grainger, or McMaster would have them.

Maybe some Hydraulic pipe supports would work, They are cheaper, and vibration isolators.

Thanks, that's pretty much what I'm looking for, I wanted something I would be able to weld some tubing to for a surfboard rack that I can clamp to the aluminum frame on my mountain bike kinda like this:

But simpler.
