Value Collection BDKP79909 Worm Gear Clamp Sae 16 10 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BDKP79909 is a miniature worm drive gear clamp rated SAE Size 16, designed to secure hose connections across a clamping diameter range of 15/16 inches to 1-1/2 inches. The band is 5/16 inches wide and constructed from stainless steel for corrosion resistance in wet or chemically active environments. This clamp type is widely used by HVAC technicians, plumbers, and mechanical contractors to create tight, leak-free connections on flexible hose, tubing, and ducting. The worm drive mechanism allows precise torque adjustment with a standard screwdriver or nut driver, providing a secure and repeatable seal.

Miniature worm gear clamps in the SAE 16 size range are commonly used in residential and light commercial applications including condensate drain lines, coolant hoses, small-diameter flexible duct connections, and low-pressure fluid lines. Their compact profile makes them well suited for tight-clearance installations where a standard-width clamp would interfere with adjacent components. This listing is sold in a pack of 10, making it practical for service vehicles, supply stock, or multi-point installations completed in a single visit.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, or mechanical contractors. Before installing or replacing hose clamps on pressurized or fluid-carrying lines, shut off the relevant supply valve and relieve any system pressure. Position the clamp over the hose and fitting before tightening the worm drive screw to avoid damaging the band. Inspect the hose bead and fitting for damage prior to clamping, and verify no leaks are present before returning the system to service.
