The spring collars don't fit and the L-screw collars come off and are a pain to even get tight in the first place. Seen these lock-jaw collars but they are expensive! Any help would be geatly appreciated!

Any help would be geatly appreciated! I used l-screw collars on my scaffolding bar until last weekend. I replaced the l-screw bit with two bolts from B&Q and tightened them up with a spanner. Works a treat and cost about £3 for the pair of bolts.
