Fixable ??

Can I fix this stupid ladder or do I need a new one.

 

Looks like two options:

1. Contact the maker and see if they can supply a new plastic clamp.
2. Buy a new ladder with better step clamps (metal).

 

I want minimal money into it. I’m not impressed with the RTT probably going to offload it.

 

If you could slide the black plastic clamp up and let us see how it “clamps”. That’s would help.
I suppose you might try to grind the section off that the screw goes through and use a hose clamp.
Maybe the rubber sheath type. Like this https://www.summitracing.com/parts/...D68iC5OD4v9JDTwrpm08jP5jw8ry9RERoCj5wQAvD_BwE

 

That appears to be one of those expandable/collapsable ladders. After I saw an insurance adjuster use one and he nearly had it collapse on him halfway up, I'd scrap it. And his wasn't even broke.
