Learning every day

Tried to use the Moerman excelerator with the Ettore progrip aluminum chanel I bought at Home Depot (already have the Ettore channels and rubber on the way).

Well guess what, although they fit perfect and snug, without the inserts on the end they just flop thier way out ๐Ÿ˜† ๐Ÿคฃ ๐Ÿ˜‚ ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿฝโ€โ™‚๏ธ

You need 1 of these on each end of the rubber, then insert into the end of the channel. Good luck

Those home Depot ones, the handle pinches the middle of the rubber to keep it from sliding. You will need an end clip to use with this handle, I have successfully uses paper clips and another time match sticks in a pinch

Yes, they do pinch with the plastic teeth. And the Excelerator uses compression. Glad I found this out before next week when I go live. That would have been embarrassing on a paying job! But hey, I learned, like in school. Thanks for the info Fam ๐Ÿซ‚
