RE: Problem with my ligature

Since you mentioned that all three ligatures were the same kind, and it got stripped rather quickly, it's probably one of those generic, cheap ligatures, which are poorly made.

Consider trying a different make and/or type of ligature. Inverted ligatures seem to have this problem far less often than regular ones.

Or maybe you are over-tightening the ligature?

If all else fails, use a piece of thread. Be a shoestring clarinetist!
