Tridon 6788553 Stainless Steel Hose Clamp 4-6 in

Product Description

The TRIDON 6788553 is a heavy-duty, all stainless steel hose clamp designed for secure pipe and hose connections across a clamping range of 4 to 6 inches. The band, housing, and screw are all constructed from 300 series stainless steel, delivering corrosion resistance suitable for demanding plumbing and mechanical applications. The band measures 0.5 inches wide, providing solid bearing surface and even clamping force. The 5/16-inch slotted hex head screw allows installation with either a standard flathead screwdriver or a hex socket. This clamp is approved for underground use under the Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC) per the shield-on-housing designation, making it appropriate for buried or concealed installations.

This clamp is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC ducting transitions, and mechanical piping systems where corrosion resistance and code compliance are required. The UPC approval makes it a go-to choice when underground or below-slab pipe connections must meet inspection. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians working on drain connections, flexible hose joints, or duct collars in the 4 to 6 inch diameter range will find this clamp appropriate for both exposed and buried service conditions.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation clamp for pipe and hose connections with an outside diameter between 4 and 6 inches in plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical systems requiring UPC-compliant underground-rated hardware.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or HVAC technicians in accordance with local plumbing codes and the Uniform Plumbing Code. Shut off flow and depressurize the line before removing or installing any clamp. Position the clamp evenly over the joint and tighten the screw to a snug, uniform fit — avoid over-torquing, which can deform the band or damage soft hose material. For underground applications, verify that burial depth and backfill material meet local code requirements before covering the connection.
