Midland Industries R60375 2-bolt Patch Clamp 3/8 in Ss

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES R60375 is a 2-bolt patch clamp designed for emergency and permanent pipe repair on 3/8-inch pipe. The clamp body is constructed from 301 stainless steel and paired with a neoprene gasket that seals against leaks along the pipe surface. At 6 inches in length, it provides a reliable sealing area over splits, cracks, or pin-hole defects. It meets ASTM A47 Grade 32610, Grade 60, and ASTM A307 standards, confirming material and fastener quality. Licensed plumbers and pipe fitters install this type of clamp in both residential and light commercial systems where a quick, code-appropriate repair is required without full pipe replacement.

The R60375 patch clamp is suited for use on 3/8-inch pipe in plumbing supply and distribution systems. It is appropriate for applications where a leak has developed along the pipe barrel and a pipe section replacement is not immediately practical. The neoprene gasket provides a flexible, compressive seal, and the stainless steel body resists corrosion in wet environments. Maximum service temperature is rated at 180 degrees F, making it compatible with hot-water supply lines within that threshold. This clamp falls within the 2-bolt stainless steel patch clamp category for plumbing accessories.

• 2-bolt design allows for even clamping pressure across the gasket
• Rated to 180 degrees F for compatibility with hot-water supply lines
• Meets ASTM A47 Grade 32610, Grade 60, and ASTM A307 standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and repair fitting for 3/8-inch pipe in residential and commercial plumbing systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before positioning the clamp over the damaged area. Center the neoprene gasket over the defect, align the clamp body, and tighten the two bolts evenly in an alternating pattern to ensure uniform gasket compression. Do not overtighten, as excessive torque can deform the neoprene gasket and compromise the seal.
