I really like them. VERY STURDY. They make repositioning the pump a real snap.

They're actually 5/8" thick.
Side-to-side = 4 3/8"
Top-to-bottom=4"

Don't you hate how you can't angle the pump as good as the stick mount. I sold mine because of that, well part of the reason

Actually, I find them to be very useful. Since I have an AGA tank, I was concerned about the very small footprint of the stick clamp. With 6100s, those things running full blast will deal some serious nookylur blast damage if the clamp came loose. I sleep much better knowing those babies are mounted on those neodymium magnets. My beef with them is the crappy

They hold great, but you still can't turn or aim them as good as you could without using the magnet. I was disappointed forsure.
But on a brighter note I'm making a custom hanger for them to hang in my corner. If anyone wants to see a pic when Im done let me know
