These side adjustment clamps are designed to support heavier weight limitations and MUST be used when installing half length bed rails onto the bariatric bed. DO NOT use the chrome colored side adjustment clamps supplied with the half length bed rail kits, as these will not support heavier weight limitations and injury or damage may result.
