Dixon dd Boss Clamp 0.5 in Hose Id Carbon Steel 2-bolt

Product Description

The DIXON dd is a 2-bolt, 2-gripping-finger Boss hose clamp designed for secure hose-end retention on half-inch inside-diameter hose. Manufactured from global investment cast carbon steel, it provides reliable clamping force across a hose outside diameter range of 52/64 inches to 60/64 inches. This clamp style is well-suited for demanding fluid and steam service applications, with a rated service temperature up to 450 degrees F. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and pipefitters working with steam or high-temperature fluid lines will find this a straightforward mechanical fastening solution.

The dd Boss clamp is intended for use on half-inch ID hose assemblies in industrial, mechanical, and trade service environments. Its 2-bolt construction distributes clamping load evenly across 2 gripping fingers, making it appropriate for steam lines, high-temperature water service, and similar pressurized hose connections where a secure, repeatable clamp is required. It is suited for both shop-built hose assemblies and field repairs.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or qualified mechanical technicians. Always depressurize and fully cool the line before removing or installing hose clamps on steam or hot-fluid service connections. Ensure the hose outside diameter falls within the clamp range of 52/64 inches to 60/64 inches before seating the clamp. Follow applicable IFGC and mechanical code requirements for hose and clamp selection in steam service.
