The ear deforms permanently when crimped, creating a uniform 360-degree seal without sharp edges or rotation points. Constructed from stainless steel with a band width of 0.157 inches and a band thickness of 0.02 inches, this clamp maintains consistent clamping force across the full clamping range of 5.10 mm to 6.10 mm. It is installed by HVAC technicians, plumbers, and automotive service professionals wherever a reliable, vibration-resistant clamp is required on small-diameter tubing or hose assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 1\/4-inch nominal clamp is suited for small-bore applications including refrigerant line insulation sleeves, low-pressure coolant hoses, drain tubing, and similar connections found in residential and light commercial HVAC systems, plumbing assemblies, and fluid-handling equipment. The compact profile fits in tight spaces where worm-drive or T-bolt clamps are impractical. The ear width of 3.20 mm provides a consistent crimp point for standard pincer-style installation tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-ear stepless design creates a permanent, uniform 360-degree seal when crimped\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and humid service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBand width of 0.157 inches and thickness of 0.02 inches for a low-profile fit in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClamping range of 5.10 mm to 6.10 mm suits standard 1\/4-inch nominal hose and tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEar inner width of 3.20 mm is compatible with standard OETIKER-style pincers and crimping tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo sharp external edges after crimping, reducing risk of abrasion to adjacent components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or original-installation clamp for 1\/4-inch nominal hose and tubing connections requiring a stepless ear-clamp fastening method.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a pincer-style or plier-style ear-clamp crimping tool rated for the clamp diameter. Position the clamp over the hose before seating the hose onto the fitting, then crimp the ear fully until the tool stops to avoid partial deformation. Because the clamp is permanent once crimped, confirm hose positioning before installing. Always depressurize and drain the line before servicing any connection this clamp secures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClamp Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-Ear (Single Ear Stepless)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClamping Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.10 mm to 6.10 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBand Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.157 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBand Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEar Inner Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.20 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound (package)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: OETIKER\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15300004-100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OETIKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541588345138,"sku":"15300004-100","price":19.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/179395be3f83e57e92cb8edbf9938ee9.jpg?v=1785880022","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/oetiker-15300004-100-1-ear-clamp-1-4-inch-stainless-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
