The '''Inline Clamp-O-Tron''' is a [[docking]] port on the side of the vessel. Until version 0.20 it was named '''Hull-mounted Clamp-O-Tron'''. Like the [[Clamp-O-Tron Shielded Docking Port]] it must be opened before docking.
 
 
== Usage ==
 
[[File:Inline Clamp-O-Tron (Opened).png|thumb|left|The Inline Clamp-O-Tron ready to dock]]
 
It allows other parts to be placed on either side, so that the craft can maintain a streamlined profile, and also allows the crew move through. It is not so durable as the [[Mk2 Clamp-O-Tron]], and has the same empty weight, doesn't have [[monopropellant]] tank built in, so in case of building an Mk2 fuselage based craft, that is more preferable to use.

== Product description ==
 
{{Quote|The Inline Clamp-O-Tron was an accidental invention, created after an engineer (who really should have been wearing his glasses) incorrectly interpreted the Shielded Clamp-O-Tron's blueprints. Still, the rest of the team very much liked the idea of a sideways-pointing docking port with its own aerodynamic shell, so he patented the design. He still refuses to admit it wasn't intentional.}}
