Value Collection MS01B115165B Worm Gear Clamp Sae 96

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS01B115165B is a worm drive gear clamp rated SAE size 96, designed to secure hoses, ducts, and fittings in plumbing, HVAC, and general trade applications. The clamp features a stainless steel and carbon steel band that is 0.5 inches wide, with an adjustment range spanning 4.5 to 6.5 inches in diameter. The worm drive mechanism provides consistent clamping force around the full perimeter of the connection. It is installed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and mechanical contractors working on fluid or air handling systems where a reliable, corrosion-resistant band clamp is required.

This clamp is suited for residential and light commercial applications where hose or duct connections fall within the 4.5 to 6.5 inch diameter range. Typical install scenarios include radiator hose connections, flexible duct collars, exhaust transitions, and drain line couplings. The SAE 96 sizing designation helps technicians quickly match the clamp to standard hose and fitting diameters without measuring each time. Grade 201 stainless steel and carbon steel construction supports use in both wet and moderate-temperature environments.

Key Features

• SAE size 96 with an adjustment range of 4.5 to 6.5 inches diameter
• Band material is Grade 201 stainless steel combined with carbon steel for corrosion resistance and strength
• Band width of 0.5 inches provides a broad clamping surface to distribute load evenly
• Worm drive design allows precise torque adjustment with a standard slotted or hex screwdriver
• Single-piece band construction with no loose components during installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation worm gear clamp for hoses, ducts, and fittings with an outside diameter between 4.5 and 6.5 inches, conforming to SAE size 96 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, or mechanical contractors using a flathead or hex-head screwdriver or nut driver. Depressurize and drain or shut off airflow in the system before removing or installing clamps on live lines. Position the band so the worm screw housing does not rest directly over a seam or bead on the fitting. Do not overtighten to the point of deforming the hose or duct wall.
