The clamp is formed from stainless steel and uses a one-time mechanical crimping method to create a consistent, leak-resistant seal. With a nominal size of 1 inch, a band width of 7 millimeters, and a band thickness of 0.6 millimeters, this clamp is sized for standard hose connections where vibration-resistant, tamper-evident fastening is required. Installation is performed with ear clamp pliers or a dedicated pincer tool. Technicians in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial service work use these clamps where reusable worm-drive clamps are not acceptable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ear clamp is suited for residential and light commercial applications where hose-to-barb or hose-to-fitting connections require a permanent, low-profile crimp. Common install scenarios include PEX tubing connections, condensate drain lines, coolant hoses, and other fluid-carrying assemblies that demand a factory-style finish. The 10-millimeter inner ear width provides consistent deformation during crimping for a reliable seal across the full hose circumference.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-ear design creates a permanent, tamper-evident crimp connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and humid environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7 millimeter band width distributes clamping force evenly across the hose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.6 millimeter band thickness provides strength while maintaining a compact profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10 millimeter inner ear width for consistent tool engagement and deformation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 inch nominal size fits standard hose and tubing barb fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style single-ear clamp for 1 inch nominal hose and tubing connections in plumbing, HVAC condensate, and fluid-handling assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires ear clamp pliers or an OETIKER-style pincer tool to crimp the ear to the closed position. Power down or depressurize the system before fitting or inspecting clamps on pressurized lines. Single-ear clamps are a one-time-use fastener and must be cut off with side cutters for removal. Follow applicable codes such as IPC or IFGC for hose connection requirements in plumbing and gas applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 1 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 millimeters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBand Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6 millimeters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInner Ear Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 millimeters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 16700031-100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OETIKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539821658418,"sku":"16700031-100","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6de47733dbe3eb2c5981bda15cd9ab3e.jpg?v=1785844444","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/oetiker-16700031-100-ear-clamp-1-inch-stainless-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
