Precision Brand 35545 Worm Gear Hose Clamp 4-5/8 to 5-1/2 in

Product Description

The PRECISION BRAND 35545 is a partial stainless steel worm gear hose clamp engineered for demanding installation environments across plumbing, HVAC, and general mechanical applications. Built with a three-piece construction and no spot welds, this clamp eliminates common corrosion failure points found in lesser designs. Rounded edges protect hose materials from cutting or abrasion during tightening and in service. The clamp adjusts to fit hose outer diameters from 4-5/8 inches to 5-1/2 inches and meets or exceeds SAE torque specifications, giving installers confidence in a secure, leak-resistant connection.

This clamp is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a reliable, corrosion-resistant hose connection is required. Typical use cases include securing large-diameter hoses on HVAC equipment, plumbing supply lines, pool and spa equipment, and general fluid-transfer systems. The partial stainless construction provides corrosion resistance on the band while keeping overall cost practical for bulk service work. The clamp is sold in packs with a minimum order quantity of 10 units, making it a sensible stocking item for service vans and shop inventory.

Key Features

• Three-piece construction with no spot welds, reducing corrosion failure points
• Rounded edges protect hose materials from abrasion and cuts during installation and in service
• Meets or exceeds SAE torque specifications for reliable, consistent clamping force
• Adjustment range of 4-5/8 inches to 5-1/2 inches accommodates large-diameter hose connections
• Partial stainless steel construction balances corrosion resistance with cost efficiency

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service clamp for large-diameter hose connections in HVAC, plumbing, pool, and general mechanical systems requiring a worm gear clamp in the 4-5/8 inch to 5-1/2 inch diameter range.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, or qualified mechanical trades. Always depressurize and drain the line before removing or repositioning hose clamps. Tighten to SAE-specified torque using an appropriate screwdriver or nut driver — do not overtighten, as excess torque can damage hose materials. Follow applicable IPC or IFGC code requirements for the specific fluid system being serviced.
