Tridon 6748553 Stainless Steel Hose Clamp 2.5-3.5 in

Product Description

The TRIDON 6748553 is an all stainless steel hose clamp designed for secure, corrosion-resistant clamping in plumbing and fluid-handling applications. The band, housing, and screw are all constructed from 300 series stainless steel, making this clamp suitable for demanding environments including underground installations. The band measures 0.5 inches wide, and the screw features a 5/16 inch slotted hex head for easy tightening with standard hand tools. The clamp adjusts to fit hose or pipe diameters ranging from 2.5 inches to 3.5 inches. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of clamp during rough-in and finish work on hose connections, drain lines, and mechanical piping systems.

This hose clamp is suited for residential and commercial plumbing applications where full stainless construction is required. It is rated for underground use, with the housing shield carrying Uniform Plumbing Code approval. The 300 series stainless steel construction resists rust and corrosion in wet, buried, and chemically active environments, making it a reliable choice for long-term below-grade installations as well as exposed above-ground connections.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use hose clamp for residential and commercial plumbing systems requiring a 2.5 to 3.5 inch all stainless steel clamp with UPC-approved underground rating.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the Uniform Plumbing Code. Before installation, confirm the hose or pipe diameter falls within the 2.5 to 3.5 inch clamping range. Use a standard screwdriver or 5/16 inch hex driver to tighten the screw; do not overtighten, as excessive torque can deform the band or damage the hose. For underground installations, ensure the burial depth and backfill material comply with applicable local code requirements.
