I have a Bessy one handed clamp and i'm trying to find a replacement trigger mechanism, that's the small internal assembly that controls the ratcheting action when you squeeze the handle. The current one is not tight anymore and i need to replace it. The whole tool works just fine and i don't wanna throw it just for one part. I checked Bessy's site, but they only sell full replacements not the internal parts. Does anyone know where i can find it?

Have a picture you can share?

Google Lens will let you take a picture of something and will tell you it may be and where it can be found.

I thought the bessey stuff came with a lifetime warranty as long as it failed during normal use and wasn't abused. Might be worth checking to see if they will do it for free

Bessey doesn't sell just the trigger mechanism alone, you'd have to buy the whole trigger assembly. Kinda frustrating since the rest of the clamp still works fine. You could try reaching out to their support directly or check tool forums or eBay for parts, but officially, it's all or nothing.
