It adjusts from 0.5 inches minimum diameter up to 1.25 inches maximum diameter, making it suited for a variety of pipe and hose sizes common in HVAC, plumbing, and fluid-handling installations. The band is constructed from stainless steel for corrosion resistance, while the worm drive housing is brass. The hex drive accepts a standard hex driver or nut driver, allowing fast tightening in tight spaces. This clamp is RoHS compliant and sold individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis clamp is used in residential and light commercial applications where hose-to-fitting or hose-to-pipe connections require consistent, reliable clamping force. Typical install scenarios include coolant lines, condensate drain lines, fuel lines, and general fluid-handling assemblies. The 0.5-inch band width distributes clamping load evenly across the hose surface, reducing the risk of cuts or blowouts on softer hose materials. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipefitters regularly use worm gear clamps of this type when assembling or servicing flexible hose connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAdjustable diameter range: 0.5 inches to 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel band for corrosion resistance in wet or harsh environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass worm drive housing for durability and reliable thread engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.5-inch band width for even clamping load distribution\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex drive size 0.31 inches — compatible with standard nut drivers and hex keys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRoHS compliant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or service clamp for flexible hose connections in the 0.5-inch to 1.25-inch outside diameter range, suitable for HVAC, plumbing, and general fluid-handling assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by licensed plumbers or HVAC technicians using a standard nut driver or hex wrench matching the 0.31-inch hex drive. Shut off fluid flow and depressurize the line before removing or installing any hose clamp. Do not overtighten — apply only enough torque to seat the band firmly against the hose without deforming it. Ensure the hose is fully seated on the fitting barb before tightening the clamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClamp Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Worm Drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBand Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBand Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHousing Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.31 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: RoHS\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: PARKER\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 97HC-12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540511883570,"sku":"97HC-12","price":18.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/90fa366a9fa954cc8a4d279e579dc1f4.jpg?v=1785857021","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-97hc-12-worm-gear-clamp-0-5-to-1-25-in-ss-band","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
