I've only ever had an issue with them slipping on one stay (out of 8 bikes running guards with those fittings over ~10 years) and the simplest fix was simple to remove the stay from the clip, then slightly ovalise the clip with a pair of pliers, refit the stay and tighten, stayed secure for several years since.

Has anybody ever found a satisfactory way to get these mounts to properly grip the struts?? A couple years in and they barely even hold them anymore with the bolt done up as tight as possible. Any help appreciated!
Edit, before anyone mentions, the washer/no washer doesn't make any difference
