[TowerTalk] Create Rotor - Mast Slip

For those that have Create rotors, I need some advice.

In fear of breaking my mast clamps, I'm hesitant on really torquing the
bolts on the clamp.  The result is that the mast is continually
slipping.  I heard of folks using some type of rubber...belt...something
to help the clamp grab the mast.  

What type of rubber do you use if any to help hold the mast?

I've got a couple of small stips of inner-tube, and it's just not doing
it.

Any suggestions?
