These ubiquitous fastening devices consist of a band, typically made of stainless steel or galvanized steel, and a screw, often referred to as a worm. Tightening the screw causes the band to constrict around a flexible hose or pipe, creating a secure seal. This band features perforations that engage with the screw’s threads, allowing for precise adjustment of the clamping diameter.
Their simple yet effective design offers a strong, reliable, and easily adjustable fastening solution. Crucial in applications requiring leak-proof connections for fluids or gases, they find widespread use in automotive, plumbing, industrial, and agricultural settings. Their prevalence stems from the ability to withstand significant pressure and temperature fluctuations, offering long-lasting performance compared to other clamping methods. The adjustable nature contributes to their versatility, accommodating various hose and pipe sizes.
