Europea type hose clamp also called worm-Gear hose clamps,these are the most commonly used hose clamps, they are econamical and reusable. These clamps have banding that detaches from the housing so you can install and remove them without disconnecting the hose or tube. Not recommended for use with sillcone (soft) hose or tube .

SAE No.

Society of Automotive Engineers industry size designation fro the maximum ID of worm-drive clamps(except for constant -tension and high -torque styles) according to SAE J1508

Torque

The amount of force times distance (in either inch-pounds or Newton-meters)that is used to tighten the nut on a clamp.Worm-Drive, Miniature and hose clamp have a maxi-mum torque rating to insure a proper seal, Do not tighten beyond the maximum torque limit as clamps can be damaged and cause leaks, the proper torque is unique for each application and must be developed by the end user

Construction

Wide screw housing riverted to saddle (1) in 4 spots to ensure full engagement of the 8 threads(2)

One piece extended band liner(3) provides isolation of the hose from the band slots ,thus preventing extrusion and shear of the hose cover through the slots

Wide 12.7mm*0.65mm and 14.2*0.65mm thick band with 8 Nm recommended tightening torque

8mm A/F slotted hex head

Material

Complies with US/SAE standard SAE J1508

200 or 300 series stainless band, housing & screw

240 hour corrosion resistand in salt spray test

Application:

The European type hose clamp avaliable is suited to use in heavy duty and high pressure

applications rerquirming a high tightening torque, and in particalar where wire reinforced,

plastic or tough rubber hoses are used
