The EasyKlip 4101 Midi Tarp Clips are pretty solid when it comes to securing tarps. They have this neat Wedge Lock design that actually increases the grip as you pile on more weight—they can hold up to 220 lbs per clip. According to our research, they're great for heavy-duty situations, like camping or keeping car covers in place, even when it's really windy.

We've found that a lot of folks are happy with how tough these clips are. One person mentioned theirs held up for 25 years without giving way, even in harsh conditions. Someone else said they used them to keep big tarps over hay stacks through a rough winter, and they did their job perfectly. These stories back up what the manufacturer says about how strong they are.

Now, on the flip side, removing them can be a bit of a mixed bag. They're built to get a stronger grip with more force, so unclamping them might need a bit more effort. Some people say using a coin or similar object can help to release the grip. This has made some look into other options, like the Tekton 6268, which they find easier to work with.

But if you're really looking for maximum hold, especially in tough outdoor situations, the EasyKlip's grip is pretty impressive. Even though some folks find them a bit challenging to remove, they remain a solid choice if you need something that will stay put.
