Questions & Answers

It looks like it should fit a 5/8 inch i.d. How do I heat the ?If the hose OD is one inch, it is likely that you need less than one inch to clamp it to the coolant pipe?

My heater hose has a 5/8 ID and I used the 7/8 on it to put the right tension on it. As well as using a 17 MM ID hose, I had to put the clamp over the barb and then slide the hose into the clamp by sliding it The ID of that object was when it reached maximum expansion. The thickness of one inch is only 980 millimeters

The clamp's diameter is based on the outside diameter of the hose, just to be sure. Is that right?

You are right, that is what I meant.

How big are the sizes listed? Are they listed as min or max? Most hose clamps listed on my internet search list cover a wide range of sizes. ?

The clamp can be used on hoses with an outside diameter larger than 16ST FK). Please measure the outside diameter (OD) of your hose, and it must be 16mm or less in order Here is what I've done. I hope it

The size info is vague and the clamp size is the same as the OD of the hose. Is that the OD of the hose or the relaxed clamp size or the clamp open size? Wouldn't it be nice if we had some basic information?

It took me a while to find the right size. I looked at a PDF file on constant tension band clamps to find out what size was appropriate

Unlike OEM clamps, these are the best alternatives
5/5

The replacement clamps provided here are of excellent OEM quality. In these constant tension clamps, the hose will expand when it heats up a little, then contract as it contract. The clamp goes through that process thousands of times throughout its life cycle. A strong pair of pliers is required to open these clamps since they are very strong. My suggestion is to order a larger size if you are right between sizes. I have bought the clamps based on my measurements of the diameter of the hose twice now and had to order a larger size. The problem is the flare on the metal hose you place on the clamp. The most important thing you need to measure is the diameter of the hose as it sits on the flare. Because your clamp needs to clear that diameter. For my application, I ordered the 7/8" clamp in order to cover some Gates Green Stripe 1/2" ID hose, since the OD measures precisely Despite their size, they couldn't clear the flare, so I ended up having to reorder the 15/16" clamp which works just fine. clamps, if you get them the right size, are far superior to the typical worm type clamp that gives the hose no room to swell, and can cut it with the screw marks. These are the ones you see as original equipment from automakers because they are far superior.

I have received this clamps, and I think that they are a nice quality product, and in my opinion, they are heavy duty I posted an example of this clamp (black on one) next to a mubea OEM constant tension clamp (gray on another)
5/5

OEM mubea clamps are #22, but this is #19, so I need to apply the same tension to get the clamps open in both brands. The rotor clip may need a little more, although I don't have a tool to measure the total tension. My goal is to have enough spares by the time I buy more sizes.

However, it is excellent
5/5

These are my favorite temp tubing fittings - they are very handy Updating the water cooling systems in my HPCs and PSCs. This is a good grade of steel and a well-made product. The best part is that I can easily work with When it comes to my final builds, I prefer their beefier cousins, (100-130 lbs. Count) 3/4" Spring Action Hose Clamps Black by Clipsandfasteners, which, for me, require.

It is a good clamp
5/5

Your fix to the title is greatly appreciated. Heater hoses with an ID of 5/8" (not OD) are easily fitted with this clamp. They slide into place with the help of silicone spray. Fit and finish are very good. The clamps have a lot of tension, so be careful. While installing, you should wear eye protection. It would be impossible for them to fly across the room if your wrench slipped off. You can also break the little tabs if you clamp too hard. When they break, the whole thing falls apart.

Coolers are a must in today's cars because of their operations
5/5

Today's cars run at higher temperatures than ever before, making cooling systems an indispensable part of the system. When the engine is cold, these clamps tighten up and expand when it is heated. There has not been a single drop of water leak from any connection that I have installed this clamp on! There are few auto parts stores that sell them, and most dealers do not stock them, so if you are doing any car work, stock up on them The coolant hoses are difficult to locate locally, but are essential for engine cooling.

Very good, thanks a lot A top-of-the-line, OE-certified product that is made in the USA Hose clamps that provide constant tension
5/5

These are ideal replacements for old or missing ones in a VW cooling system rebuild. I got a couple different sizes to fit my needs. It's best to check the size chart to make sure you get the right size.

The clamp is far superior to the worm clamp
5/5

A set of coolant line clips is an essential part of any automotive system. The clamp is far superior to the worm clamp. As you get into the larger sizes, you find the quality to be very good and the pieces plenty heavy duty.

These are the perfect size for larger hoses - and I cannot find them anywhere else
5/5

The clamps were perfect for large hoses and I couldn't find them anywhere else, so I found them extremely useful for my repair work and much better than using.
