Tridon 6780553 Stainless Steel Hose Clamp 3.5 to 5.5 Inches

Product Description

The TRIDON 6780553 is a 67 Series all stainless steel hose clamp rated for clamping ranges from 3.5 inches to 5.5 inches. The band, housing, and screw are all constructed from 300 series stainless steel, making this clamp resistant to corrosion in wet, buried, and chemically aggressive environments. The band measures 0.5 inches wide, and the screw uses a 5/16-inch slotted hex head for positive engagement with both flat-blade and hex drivers. This clamp is approved under the Uniform Plumbing Code for underground installation, making it a dependable choice for licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on buried service lines and below-grade connections.

This clamp is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where a secure, corrosion-resistant connection is required. Typical use cases include securing flexible hose to rigid pipe on water supply lines, drain connections, and irrigation systems. The all stainless construction makes it equally appropriate for exposed outdoor installations, crawl spaces, and direct-burial scenarios where lesser carbon steel clamps would corrode and fail prematurely.

Key Features

• Full 300 series stainless steel construction — band, housing, and screw
• Clamping range: 3.5 inches to 5.5 inches
• 0.5-inch wide band for broad clamping surface and even load distribution

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation hose clamp for plumbing, HVAC, and industrial hose connections requiring a clamping diameter between 3.5 inches and 5.5 inches.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following IPC and UPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before removing or repositioning any hose connection. Use a 5/16-inch hex driver or a flat-blade screwdriver to tighten the clamp screw evenly — do not overtighten, as excess torque can distort the band or damage flexible hose. For underground applications, confirm burial depth and backfill requirements per local code before covering the connection.
