Ideal Tridon 6806 68 Series Worm Drive Hose Clamp 3/8 Inch to 7/8 Inch Diameter

Product Description

The Ideal Tridon 6806 is a 68 Series worm drive hose clamp built for demanding industrial and trade applications. It handles a clamping range of 3/8 inch to 7/8 inch in diameter, making it a practical choice for securing hoses, tubing, and fittings in tight spaces. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and industrial mechanics rely on this style of clamp for its consistent holding power and corrosion resistance in wet or chemically exposed environments.

The 6806 uses a 9/16 inch wide band made from 200-grade stainless steel. The wider band distributes clamping force evenly around the hose or tube, reducing the chance of damage to softer materials like rubber or silicone hose. The housing is also constructed from 200-grade stainless steel, giving the entire clamp strong resistance to rust and oxidation. This all-stainless construction is a key reason the 6806 performs well in marine, plumbing, HVAC, and general industrial settings where moisture and temperature changes are common.

The drive screw is a 5/16 inch hex head made from 410-grade stainless steel, a harder alloy that stands up to repeated tightening without stripping. The recommended installation torque is 35 inch-pounds, or 4 Newton-meters. This spec helps technicians avoid over-tightening, which can damage hose material, and under-tightening, which can lead to leaks. A standard 5/16 inch hex driver or socket wrench is all that is needed for installation, which speeds up the job in the field.

Worm drive clamps like the 6806 are a staple in trade work because they are adjustable, reusable, and easy to install with common hand tools. The Ideal Tridon 68 Series is a well-recognized line in the clamp industry, known for consistent quality and dimensional accuracy across the product range.
