stainless steel worm drive hose clamp A SS (Stainless Steel) Worm Drive Hose Clamp is a type of clamp commonly used to secure hoses onto fittings, such as pipes or barbs. The "worm drive" refers to the mechanism used to tighten the clamp, which consists of a screw (resembling a "worm") that, when turned, moves a band around the hose. This tightens the hose securely in place. Key Features: Material: Made from stainless steel, these clamps are resistant to corrosion and rust, making them ideal for use in various environments, especially where moisture or chemicals are present. Adjustment Mechanism: The worm drive mechanism allows for easy adjustment of the clamp size to fit different hose diameters. Durability: Stainless steel ensures that these clamps are durable, even under high pressure or extreme conditions. Common Uses: These clamps are often used in automotive, plumbing, and industrial applications, especially for securing hoses in engines, radiators, fuel lines, and irrigation systems.
