How to choose hose clamp?
In any automotive or truck application, you will see the need to clamp something, whether it's a coolant line or an intercooler pipe or even an exhaust system, so we expect our clamp offerings. We want to show you what we offer and how to pick the right clamp for your application.
high torque worm gear clamp
Take our civic type bar, for example, it uses three different types of clamps that we're offering all. They all have other functions, so come on, and I will show you why. Our high torque worm gear clamp, This is used on the intake induction hose intercooler pipes, and some coolant lines we offer this in silver. There is pretty much the standard in any type of aftermarket clamp.
OEM-style spring clamp
And then, if you look at our catch can kit. We opted to use an OEM-style spring clamp. This could keep constant tension around a rubber couple that can change with the weather. So there's always a continuous spring pressure squeezing evenly around whatever you are clamping. It pretty much matches everything else under the engine bay. But then, if you look down on our catch cans valve. We don't want to pressure the can we don't want to service the check valve. We opted to use a permanent clamp. Once you squeeze this clamp, it's not come off, so this is a more permanent fixture on a transmission line or an airline, or a fuel line that you don't want to have any types of maintenance on.
T bolt clamp
Now let's focus on some truck stuff so this is our workhouse our six four power stroke. Have had this truck for a long time with all our parts on it runs a lot of boost toes and a lot of weight, so with that, we want to run a T bolt clamp. It will hold s lot more boost. The concentration.
The t-bolt plant is going to hold this inner cooler. We have no power, but there's some difference. He's R &D on the original kit. We put on this truck years ago. You can see this leaves a long torque for them now. If space is a problem, you want to run something like a constant worm gear. So it uses the same worm gear as our other high torque wiring gear, but it has these washers that will always hold tension on the hardware and the clamp.
We off stress on the hardware and the clamp. And we offer this where space is limited. It wouldn't leave this long tail, but it will still hold all that pressure you need containing high boost levels one step further than a t-ball clamp is going to the D -band clamps, so appealing to you fabrications out there. We put this fabrication nut in your track welding. You don't have to wrestle with this jam nut, and that locking nut thing in the past. You only used it when you are completely done.
