It will clamp the record down, but it won’t do what the appropriate clamp will do. Which is to have the record firmly connected to the platter.
In other words, get the right clamp.
good luck

VPI CLAMP
Anyone out there crazy or curious enough to try the knob from a VPI cleaning machine as a clamp on their VPI table? I had 2 VPIs but 1 came with no clamp so I switched the clamp between tables. Have sold 1 and now have no threaded clamp. Just checked and it does seem to thread, though it takes a lot longer to work its way all the way down. Not sure if there is a huge audible difference between the expensive clamps and the cheap plastic knob but I await stories from those with significant experience that have tried.
