what kind of clamps does it use and is it rain proof?

The clamps are made of metal with a knob that turns for tightening and yes it's rain proof. It's great and easy to put up.

No, NOT rain proof, Maybe a very light rain. sprinkle that is. This is a light duty shade product. I do love it though. The setup really does need two people. The clamps are amazing. VERy strong and well build. Pretty heavy too, most of the weight is the clamps.

The clamps, which are part of the rod that holds the actual cloth shelter up, slide into the ends of the picnic table. There's a screw device that you tighten up to the table. We've had no problems whatsoever, and it's nice because the poles are adjustable to fit any picnic table. We love our shelter & get asked where we bought it, every time we go camping. I hope this helps - it's kind of hard to explain!

Well The only thing that is rain proof is eather metat or glass,it dose provide shade but the frame is not that strong the clamps bend in a good gust. A nise desing but I think you you would want to but it up and down as needed.

Not sure how to describe the clamps. You just slide it on to the end of the table and then tighten the clamp. It is rain proof, but need to watch how strong the wind is when you use it.

it has a gasket to seal out elements from rain or sprinkling water. Good product

The clamps are made of plastic (nylon?) but are pretty tough...I got them for a project that I needed them for which require the clamping on to a circular structure. After many cycles of clamping on/taking off, the clamps have yet to fail.

The clamp comes with inserts to size it to different handle bars. I have found it to be secure when properly tightened.

It holds up pretty well depending on how well you anchor it. No issues with tears or rips after 2 summers and a fair number of storms. We do take it down during winter before major storms, but the adjustable clamps make that a 2-5 minute job.

We are using 2 and have a third one waiting to be installed, planning on ordering one more. It does work in the rain, have not had any issues with it.

I purchased a conduit clamp the size of the roll bar and made a wood wedge for the spacer between the clamp and the top and {2} 1/4" bolts, flat washers, and self locking nuts. I installed this in the middle for safety. Very similar to the other clamps that hold the top down. You will need a rubber washer under the top washer to stop the water from dripping when out in the rain. I did 2 other things that I don't think I can explain here. I can send you some pics. if you want. I have pulled mine 60 miles per hour with no problem. Wind shield beware.

So far I have used it with clamps from Lowes, Home Depot & some I purchased offline. I'm not sure about all, but I would say a wide selection.

I had to buy my clamps separate -- I purchased the DeWalt ones I believe. They are quick clamps.

The clamp is plastic with 3 rubber suction cups on the top and the bottom. The clamp is 3 inches across and opens up about 2 inches maximum.

It's pretty tightly quild so it holds it back. Heavy rain the center will sag until it drips out or you let it down to drain. I take it down if it looks like rain. We love it. I bought two ratch tie downs from Menards that are framed to bolt to a pickup rack so it takes me less than five minutes to install.

The Bell 15 function is resistant to light rain, we haven't used it in heavy rain and of course don't leave our bikes outside when not in use.

It works well in the rain as long as you use the provided ropes to tie down the rain cover. If you dont, water will collect between the frame and rain cover and could cause a problem

Lock is a cheap lock. I've had no problems with rain getting inside. Should hold up to snow OK although I guess it depends on weight of snow/ice. There is a seal around the lid. Diamond plate aluminum construction.

The clamp is very strong and is made to clamp down on the solid plastic of the wagon. It needs to Clamp on to something ridged Like a Plastic, Wood, steel Framed Chair. The Umbrella is very nice and holds up great. I have one that is 7 years old and has been left out in the weather a few times for several days at a time.

No.....there are no extra holes or good places to clamp an umbrella that I can think of. It is small enough to move or put underneath a patio umbrella.

Not waterproof. Is nicely made, but simply press the clamshell type release latch to remove from your umbrella stand to prevent any damage. Also remove for battery recharging after each usage.
