Oetiker 15100011-100 2-ear Clamp 13/16 Inch

Product Description

The OETIKER 15100011-100 is a 2-ear stepless clamp designed for secure, permanent hose and tubing connections in plumbing, HVAC, and fluid-handling applications. Formed from stainless steel with a 1 mm wall thickness and a 9 mm band width, this clamp delivers consistent radial clamping force when crimped with the appropriate pincer tool. The clamping range spans 18.10 mm to 22.00 mm, making it suited for tubing assemblies that require a leak-free, vibration-resistant seal. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and assembly technicians install this style of clamp where reusable worm-drive clamps are not acceptable and a low-profile, tamper-resistant connection is required.

This 2-ear clamp is commonly used on PEX tubing, coolant hoses, pneumatic lines, and similar flexible tubing assemblies in residential and light commercial systems. Its 13/16 inch nominal size fits tubing in the corresponding diameter range, and the stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet or high-humidity environments. It is well suited for hydronic heating systems, refrigerant line accessory connections, and potable water distribution assemblies where a permanent crimp connection is specified.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and high-humidity environments
• 9 mm band width distributes clamping force evenly across the tubing surface
• 1 mm wall thickness provides consistent ear geometry for reliable crimps
• Clamping range of 18.10 mm to 22.00 mm suits standard 13/16 inch nominal tubing
• 2-ear design creates a permanent, low-profile connection that resists loosening under vibration
• Compatible with standard Oetiker pincer and crimping tools used in trade applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style permanent clamp for flexible hose and tubing assemblies in the 13/16 inch nominal size range across plumbing, HVAC, and fluid-handling installations.

Installation Notes

Installation requires an Oetiker-compatible ear clamp pincer or crimping tool — do not attempt to close ear clamps with pliers or improper tooling, as uneven crimping can cause leaks. Shut off fluid supply and relieve system pressure before servicing any hose or tubing connection. This clamp is a single-use permanent fastener and cannot be reopened and reused once crimped. Follow applicable IPC or IFGC guidelines and local code requirements for the specific tubing system being serviced.
