Precision Brand 35405 Stainless Worm Gear Hose Clamp

Product Description

The PRECISION BRAND 35405 is a partial stainless worm gear hose clamp engineered for demanding installation environments across HVAC, plumbing, and general mechanical applications. It features a three-piece construction with no spot welds, eliminating a common corrosion point found on lesser clamps. Rounded edges protect the hose surface from cutting or chafing during tightening. The clamp adjusts to fit hose outer diameters from 2-5/16 inches up to 3-1/4 inches, making it well-suited for a range of mid-size hose connections. It meets or exceeds SAE torque specifications, giving installers a reliable, code-aware fastening solution.

This clamp is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications where a secure, corrosion-resistant hose connection is required. Typical uses include coolant lines, radiator hoses, HVAC drain and vent connections, plumbing drain lines, and general fluid-transfer assemblies. The partial stainless construction balances corrosion resistance with cost efficiency, making it a practical choice for high-volume service work. It is sold in a minimum pack quantity of 10 units, which suits service trucks and shop stock alike.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or new-installation worm gear hose clamp for hose outer diameters between 2-5/16 inches and 3-1/4 inches across HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical systems.

Installation Notes

Worm gear hose clamps of this type are typically installed by HVAC technicians, plumbers, and mechanical contractors using a flat-blade or hex-drive screwdriver or nut driver. Always depressurize and drain the line before removing or replacing a clamp on an active fluid system. Tighten to SAE-specified torque to avoid over-compression, which can damage the hose. Inspect the hose bead and clamp seating position before final tightening to ensure even clamping force around the full circumference.
