Constructed from stainless steel, it delivers consistent clamping force when the ear is crimped with the appropriate pincer tool. The clamp measures 9\/16 inch nominal size with a band width of 7.00 mm and a band thickness of 0.60 mm. The inner ear width of 8.00 mm is sized to accept standard crimping jaws. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and refrigeration mechanics use these clamps on low-pressure hose connections where a clean, non-adjustable closure is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis ear clamp is suited for residential and light commercial applications involving flexible conduit, drain hose, coolant hose, and similar tubing assemblies. The 9\/16 inch nominal size targets small-diameter hose connections common in condensate drain lines, radiant tubing, and other fluid-handling circuits. Installation requires a dedicated ear-clamp pincer or crimping tool to deform the ear and set the final clamp diameter. No additional hardware or sealant is typically required when the correct clamp-to-hose fit is confirmed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-ear design provides a permanent, tamper-resistant crimp closure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet or humid service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7.00 mm band width distributes clamping load evenly across the hose surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.60 mm band thickness maintains structural integrity after crimping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8.00 mm inner ear width accepts standard OEM-spec crimping jaw sets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e9\/16 inch nominal size fits small-diameter hose and tubing assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style single-ear clamp for small-diameter flexible hose and tubing connections in HVAC, plumbing, and fluid-handling applications requiring a nominal 9\/16 inch clamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation must be performed with a calibrated ear-clamp pincer or crimping tool sized for this clamp series — do not attempt to close the ear with pliers or open-jaw tools, as uneven deformation will compromise the seal. Confirm hose and fitting dimensions match the 9\/16 inch nominal clamp size before crimping, since ear clamps cannot be reopened or reused after installation. Shut off fluid supply and relieve any residual pressure in the line before removing an existing clamp or seating a new one. Follow applicable plumbing or mechanical codes for the jurisdiction and system type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClamp Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ear Clamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/16 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBand Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBand Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.60 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInner Ear Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0038 pounds\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: 16700013-100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OETIKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51538952945970,"sku":"16700013-100","price":15.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/49c2b4708f54988dbd825ee47aa72ede.jpg?v=1785830728","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/oetiker-16700013-100-ear-clamp-9-16-inch-stainless-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
