Frequently Asked Questions

What are the applications of T-bolt and V-band clamps?

Typical applications include material handling equipment, food processing machinery, sports vehicles, vibrating separators, hose and pipe connectors, truck and bus exhaust components, pump and filter quick release connectors and artificial limbs. The military has extensively used T-bolt and v-band clamps as components in the design of helicopters, planes, submarines and orbiting satellites.

How to determine the nominal size of your hose clamp application?

  • Using Calipers: With the hose assembled on the pipe or tube fitting, use callipers to measure the outside diameter of the hose and fitting application. This measurement is used to specify the nominal clamp size.
  • Using "Pi" Tape Rule: Measure the O.D of the hose and fitting application using the "pi" tape rule with the hose mounted on the pipe or tube fitting. To select the nominal clamp size, use this measurement.

If the pressure or temperature of a hose connection fluctuates while in service, how should it be handled?

Many spring-loaded band clamps are available from Clampco which are set up to compensate for pressure and temperature changes in various hose assemblies. These clamps adjust by changes in hose lines' size to maintain constant band tension.
