(OP)
Does anyone have experience using these 2 piece bulkhead clamps to mount a klein flange interface to a bulkhead or other flat piece?

I keep getting a leak rate >1e-6 cc/sec and I want to get it below 1e-7 cc/sec. What torque do you use on those bolts?
Thanks,
Phil

How flat and what surface finish is the mating piece (flat plate side), and/or does it have a matching groove for the KF seal? If not, are you running w/o any seal on the KF flange? If not using seal, I'd look to find an o-ring to fill the gap, or - have you tried slathering on some silicone grease?
If you are using a seal, what material, and have you checked that it's not degraded or cut, and that its mating grooves have a nice shiny surface finish.
