Stainless steel hose clamps offer superior corrosion resistance, high tensile strength, and long-lasting durability. They are ideal for securing hoses in demanding environments such as automotive, marine, and industrial applications.
Worm clamps consist of a metal band with a gear thread cut into it and a screw. When the screw is turned, it acts as a worm drive pulling the threads of the band, which tightens the band around the hose to create a secure seal.
Rubber-lined clamps prevent scratches and damage to soft hoses or pipes. The rubber lining also absorbs vibrations, reduces noise, provides electrical insulation, and ensures a snug fit without over-tightening.
Single ear clamps are designed for easy installation and standard pressure applications. Double ear clamps feature two ears that provide increased clamping force and a wider clamping range, making them suitable for dual-sided seal reinforcement.
To choose the correct clamp size, measure the outside diameter (OD) of the hose once it is pushed onto the fitting. Select a clamp size range where your measured diameter falls close to the middle of the clamp's minimum and maximum adjustment range.
