Oetiker BD-24049-1316 2-ear Clamp 13/16 Inch

Product Description

The OETIKER BD-24049-1316 is a 2-ear stepless clamp designed for secure, permanent hose and tubing connections in plumbing, HVAC, and fluid-handling applications. It features a 13/16 inch nominal size with a clamping range of 19.00 mm to 22.00 mm and a 9 mm band width. The 2-ear design allows the clamp to be swaged or crimped with standard ear clamp pliers or a pincer tool, creating a 360-degree uniform seal. This type of clamp is commonly installed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipe fitters where a leak-free, tamper-resistant connection is required.

This clamp is suited for residential and light commercial installations involving flexible hose connections, PEX tubing, fuel lines, coolant hoses, or similar applications requiring a compact, low-profile clamp. The 9 mm band width provides adequate holding strength across a range of soft tubing materials. It is packaged in a quantity of 10 per pack, making it practical for service technicians stocking their vans or completing multi-connection jobs in a single visit.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a calibrated ear clamp pincer tool or dedicated stepless clamp pliers to properly swage the ears. Shut off water supply or depressurize the system before removing any existing clamp or hose. Once a 2-ear clamp is swaged, it is a permanent connection and must be cut off for removal. Follow applicable IPC or IFGC guidelines for the specific piping system being serviced.
