Precision Brand 35445 Stainless Worm Gear Hose Clamp

Product Description

The PRECISION BRAND 35445 is a partial stainless worm gear hose clamp built for demanding installation environments. The clamp features a three-piece construction with no spot welds, eliminating a common corrosion point that degrades clamp integrity over time. Rounded edges protect hose material from cutting or abrasion during tightening and in service. The adjustment range spans 2-13/16 inches to 3-3/4 inches, making it suited for mid-size hose connections in plumbing, HVAC, and general mechanical applications. Performance meets or exceeds SAE torque specifications, giving technicians confidence in load-rated installations.

This clamp is used wherever a reliable, torque-rated hose connection is required. Typical applications include coolant hoses, drain lines, duct connections, and fluid transfer fittings in both residential and light commercial settings. It is sold in packs of 10, which suits service vans and shop stock for repetitive installation tasks. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and mechanical contractors are the primary installers.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, or mechanical contractors using a standard screwdriver or nut driver.
