A pinch clamp and mount are provided. The pinch clamp includes a first member and second member including rounded pinch surfaces. The second member is pivotably coupled to the first member at a first end. A threaded shaft is pivotably coupled to a second end of the first member.

The seat includes protrusions at the second end that prevent the nut from sliding out of the seat. The mount includes a body having a flat bottom surface. An internal wall defines a through hole in the flat bottom surface. Two guide rails on a top surface of the body define a central slot configured to receive the clamp. A pair of keyed slots within the two guide rails are configured to receive a pair of keyed projections on the clamp.
