Oetiker 10100037-100 2-ear Clamp 1-3/16 Inches

Product Description

The OETIKER 10100037-100 is a 2-ear clamp designed for secure, permanent hose and tubing connections in plumbing, HVAC, and fluid-handling applications. It features a 10 mm band width with a 1.5 mm band thickness, providing consistent clamping force across a range of 26.30 mm to 31.00 mm. The zinc-plated carbon steel construction resists corrosion in typical installation environments. This style of clamp is installed using a dedicated ear-clamp pincer tool that crimps the ear or ears to lock the clamp in place. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and mechanical contractors commonly specify this clamp style for push-fit and barbed fitting connections.

This clamp is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a low-profile, tamper-resistant hose connection is required. Common uses include PEX tubing, coolant hoses, and fuel or fluid lines where a crimp-style termination is preferred over a worm-gear or spring clamp. The 1-3/16 inch nominal size fits tubing in the corresponding diameter range, making it a practical choice for tight-clearance installations where a smooth exterior profile matters.

Key Features

• 2-ear clamp design provides uniform, permanent clamping force when crimped
• 10 mm band width and 1.5 mm band thickness for a secure, low-profile grip
• Clamping range of 26.30 mm to 31.00 mm accommodates standard 1-3/16 inch nominal tubing
• Zinc-plated head coating for corrosion resistance in standard service environments
• Carbon steel construction delivers consistent strength for fluid-line and hose applications
• Minimum order quantity of 10 units supports typical service and installation volumes

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation 2-ear clamp for hose and tubing connections in the 1-3/16 inch nominal size range across residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC, and fluid-handling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a dedicated ear-clamp pincer or crimping tool rated for 2-ear clamps. De-pressurize and drain any fluid lines before removing or installing clamps. Once crimped, 2-ear clamps are permanent and cannot be re-opened without cutting. Follow applicable IPC or IFGC guidelines for the specific fluid or gas system being serviced.
