Value Collection MS01B1125 Worm Gear Clamp Sae 8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS01B1125 is a worm gear clamp rated SAE Size 8, designed to secure hoses, tubing, and fittings across a clamping range of 7/16 inch minimum to 1 inch maximum diameter. The band is constructed from stainless steel and carbon steel at material grade 201, offering solid corrosion resistance in moderate-duty applications. At 1/2 inch wide, the band distributes clamping force evenly to reduce hose deformation. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general mechanical contractors use this style of clamp for low-pressure hose connections in fluid and air handling systems.

This worm gear clamp suits residential and light commercial applications where a reliable, adjustable band clamp is needed on hoses, pipes, or fittings within the 7/16 inch to 1 inch diameter range. Typical installation scenarios include radiator hoses, coolant lines, ductwork connections, and similar mechanical assemblies. The worm drive mechanism allows field adjustment with a common screwdriver or nut driver, making it a practical choice for service and repair work across multiple trades.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, or mechanical contractors. Before installing or removing this clamp, shut off fluid or air flow and relieve any system pressure. Use a flathead screwdriver or 5/16 inch hex nut driver to tighten the worm drive screw. Do not overtighten, as excessive torque can damage hose material or deform the band.
