The pictures below are of the boom to mast clamp from my own Hygain LJ-113 10 meter 3 element beam I put up about 6 years ago. This set up lasted less than a week and was replaced with a 1/4" thick 8"x8" Aluminum plate and proper U-Clamps with saddles. No twisting of the boom at the junction of the boom tubing. I also added a 3' aluminum tube inside the 2 sections of original boom tubing. I was very skeptical of the element to boom clamps (also stamped sheet metal) but so far they have held up very well.
