Good call on trying blue fittings. The nice red ones I bought last summer are mostly pink now.
1" frame clamps for the smaller boats and those concerned with weight!
I've been teasing the group with pics of the 1" schedule clamps for a while now. Well, they're finally here and up for sale on the website. These were made by popular requests through this forum and many personal phone calls from customers.

Intended uses:
Smaller boats that don't need full-size frames
Lightweight break-down frames
Sprinter and RV rack accessories
You'll notice that we changed our color from red to blue. This propagates across all our products as it is more UV stable. We do have a new Red coming out in Cerakote, but they will be at a premium cost due to 4X coating costs.
Look at the clamps, and keep the requests coming in. We love to respond to customer demand.
Cheers!

I bought 6 of these fittings to add to my existing cataraft frame to add one moveable cross bar, and to make a rigid linkage between my rowing module and trailer frame to make an effective extra bay for another dry box.
The fit and finish is very good. The radius of the fitting mates flush with the 1" Schedule 40 aluminum pipe. I like the blue color as it matches my blue cataraft tubes better than the red color used on some of Revolvers other fittings. The ends of the u-bolts are nicely rounded over. However, the only negative I can find is that the u-bolts are not cut short enough. They stick up above the nuts once tightened down too much and also extend above the top of the fitting. It is hard to imagine why Revolver Outdoors left the ends of the u-bolts so long. This is a significant issue that should be corrected by Revolver Outdoors if they make any additional batches. The bolts should not extend above the fitting as they can definitely cause injury when climbing round the frame. I'll have to spend some time trimming and refinishing the end of all the u-bolts. Other than that, they seem great. I'll report back with some pics of their configuration when I have the boat all setup and on the water latter this summer.
