RIDGID 20973 Inductive Signal Clamp

Issues with the Ridgid inductive clamp. Hinge becomes loose and handle cracks. The screws in the handle are so close to the edge that its only natural that the plastic will weaken and start to crack over time. One and a half years all 4 clamps have stress cracks. I'm concerned this is a known issue but is it warrantied or will Ridgid research and development team along side quality control build an inductive clamp that can over come these issues. I had one handle break completely clamp still works but did not function properly. 1 and a half years used several times a day M-F. All clamps have had the same issue the screws are to close to handle and all have stress crack on there way to break completely. The product works great however the craftsmanship needs serious improvement. Good luck RIDGID please let me know if you make another model to fix these issues I'll buy 5.
