It was not rust. It did not look like rust at all. The cast iron nodules
looks brownish, but it did not seem like rust. It was a casting defect of
some kind. I should have kept the C clamp.


You _should_ have taken it back to the store where you bought it, and
got a replacement or reimbursed. I'd have picked reimbursed, so that I
could buy a proper clamp - what guarantee is there that a replacement
wouldn't also be crap?
