Hose Clamps and Band Clamps

About Hose Clamps and Band Clamps

Hose clamps and band clamps are used to secure pipe, hose, tubing and mating circular parts together. Parts include worm drive hose clamps and profiled V-band clamps. A hose clamp (or clip) is used to securely attach a hose onto a fitting. A band clamp (also called a screw clamp or JubileeĀ® clamp) is a band (usually stainless steel) into which a screw thread pattern has been cut. One end of the band contains a captive screw. When the screw is turned, it tightens the band around the hose. A stainless steel pipe clamp secures piping and prevents movement. In an electrical junction box, a cable clamp holds wiring in place and prevents the wiring from rubbing against the sharp edges of the box. A V-band clamp provides a secure, reliable connection for flanged joints and provides an alternative to the standard 3-bolt flange. A tube clamp or tubing clamp is used to rapidly connect round or square tubing for the construction of fixtures, supports, and equipment bases. JubileeĀ® is a registered trademark of L. Robinson and Co. (Gillingham) Ltd. Hose clamps and band clamps can be used to connect pipes or rods to correct problems in alignment.
