Fuel Injection Single Ear Stepless Hose Clamps Tool 360D Seal

Mini 2 Ear Fuel Injection Crimp Pex Tubing Air Hose Diesel Petrol Pipe Clips

A stepless type of ear clamp is which eliminates steps or gaps on the inner circumference of the clamp. This is said to provide uniform compression and a 360° seal. Such stepless clamps are claimed to be well suited to applications involving thin-walled hoses, supposedly with higher retained loads. This suggests they should be considered for difficult to seal applications such as molded plastics or other less malleable materials, commonly used in the automotive industry.

MATERIAL - 304 Stainless Steel, has good corrosion resistance, heat resistance, low temperature strength and mechanical properties.

FEATURES - Form a complete 360-Degree watertight seal. There is no protrusion and gap in the inner, narrowband design providing a more concentrated sealing pressure.

APPLICATION - Hose clamps used to seal various types of hoses, pincers can increase clamp force, designed for repairing pipes & plumbing systems. Widely used in securing hoses, pipe, cable, tube, fuel lines etc. Perfect for automotive, industrial, boat/marine, shield, household etc. both indoor and outdoor.

Cochlear design ensures continuous clamping during temperature changes or machine vibrations, edge polished smooth, avoid damage to the hose.

These clamps are universal and will work with any brand of crimp style PEX fittings or PEX tubing.

Interlocking ring that forms a complete 360-Degree watertight seal

Perfect for connecting PEX to crimp type fittings in hard to reach spaces

Ear Clamps consist of a band (usually stainless steel) into which one or more “ears” or closing elements have been formed. The clamp is placed over the end of the hose or tube to be connected and when each ear is closed at the base of the ear with a special pincer tool, it permanently deforms, pulling the band, and causing the band to tighten around the hose. The size of clamp should be chosen such that the ear(s) are almost completely closed on installation.

Some such clamps feature dimples intended to provide a spring effect when the diameter of the hose or tube contracts or expands due to thermal or mechanical effects.

Other features of this style of clamp include: narrow band widths, intended to provide a concentrated compression of the hose or tube; and tamper resistance, due to the permanent deformation of the clamp’s “ear”. If closure of the clamp “ear(s)” is performed to manufacturer's recommendations, which generally provide for constant jaw force, the sealing effect is not unduly sensitive to component tolerance variations.

Many other methods can be used to attach hoses or tubing, such as compression fittings (where a nylon or soft metal ferrule is compressed onto the hose by the tightening of the fitting), push-fit fittings (where the hose is inserted inside of a compression sleeve, designed such that force against the hose causes the sleeve to tighten), swage fittings (where a stiff collar is compressed onto the hose), clamp fittings (where two blocks are tightened onto the sides of the hose, often found on garden hoses), crimp banding (similar to worm gear banding but a crimp is used instead of a screw/thread), and a multitude of others. However, these devices are not typically referred to as hose clamps.
