Value Collection BDNA-24107 Worm Gear Clamp Sae 8

Product Description

The Value Collection BDNA-24107 is a worm gear clamp designed for securing hoses, tubing, and flexible connections in plumbing, HVAC, and general mechanical applications. Rated SAE Size 8, it accommodates diameters from 1/2 inch to 29/32 inch and features a stainless steel band that is 1/2 inch wide. The worm drive mechanism allows precise, tool-driven tightening to create a leak-resistant seal on soft-wall hoses and sleeves. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and mechanical contractors use clamps of this type for low-pressure fluid and air connections where corrosion resistance is a requirement.

This clamp is suited for residential and light commercial installations where stainless steel construction is specified to resist rust and chemical exposure. Typical applications include coolant hose connections, condensate drain lines, radiator hoses, and flexible duct collars. The SAE 8 size range makes it appropriate for small-diameter tubing commonly found in refrigeration lines, plumbing supply connections, and equipment service fittings. It is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 10 units.

Key Features

• SAE Size 8 rating with a clamping range of 1/2 inch to 29/32 inch diameter
• Stainless steel band and housing for corrosion resistance in wet or chemical environments
• Band width of 1/2 inch provides consistent clamping force distribution across soft-wall hose
• Worm drive design allows incremental tightening with a standard flat-blade or hex-driver tool
• Lightweight construction at 0.01 pounds per clamp

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose OEM-style worm gear clamp suitable for hoses and flexible tubing with an outside diameter falling within the 1/2 inch to 29/32 inch range across plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical service applications.

Installation Notes

Worm gear clamps of this type are installed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, and mechanical service technicians using a flat-blade screwdriver or a 5/16-inch hex driver. Always depressurize and drain the line before removing or installing hose clamps on any pressurized system. Position the clamp over the hose before seating the hose onto the fitting, then advance the screw until snug — do not overtighten stainless steel band clamps on thin-wall or soft elastomer hoses as this can cut the hose material. Follow applicable IPC or IFGC guidelines for the specific system being serviced.
