Value Collection BDNA-24123 Worm Gear Clamp Sae 52

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BDNA-24123 is a worm drive hose clamp designed for secure, adjustable clamping on hoses, tubing, and fittings. The clamp accommodates a diameter range of 2-13/16 inches to 3-3/4 inches, making it suitable for a broad range of connections in HVAC, plumbing, and general mechanical applications. The stainless steel band resists corrosion in wet and high-humidity environments. The worm drive mechanism provides even radial pressure around the hose or tube, reducing the risk of leaks at the connection point. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipe fitters commonly install this type of clamp during equipment hookups, duct connections, and coolant line assemblies.

This clamp fits standard hose and tubing connections falling within the SAE 52 size classification. It is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications where a reliable, corrosion-resistant clamp is required. Typical uses include connecting flexible hoses to fittings, securing drain lines, and clamping flexible duct or tubing in HVAC and plumbing systems. The 1/2-inch band width distributes clamping force evenly, which helps prevent hose deformation under tightening.

Key Features

• SAE Size 52 worm drive clamp with a diameter range of 2-13/16 inches to 3-3/4 inches
• Stainless steel band construction for corrosion resistance in wet or high-humidity environments
• 1/2-inch band width for even clamping pressure and reduced hose distortion
• Worm drive adjustment allows precise diameter sizing during installation
• Lightweight at 0.01 pounds, minimizing added load on flexible connections

Compatibility

Designed as a standard SAE 52 worm gear clamp for hoses and tubing with an outside diameter between 2-13/16 inches and 3-3/4 inches in HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, or pipefitters using a flat-head or hex-head screwdriver and appropriate hand tools. Always depressurize and drain the line before removing or installing clamps on pressurized hose connections. Position the clamp at least 1/4 inch from the end of the hose to ensure full sealing contact, and tighten the worm drive screw gradually to avoid over-compression of the hose material.
