The clips I bought specially for new clothes dryer (Linomatic 600), since their lines should be thin and soft-grip brackets would be necessary. These braces still leave unsightly marks on fine clothes and larger garments (eg towels and sheets) "run" continue on the leash towards the center together and do not remain taut hanging. Too bad, because I would just continue to use my old clamps and I like to save this investment. Conclusion: cheap but unfortunately not good!
