Value Collection MS01D5782 Worm Gear Clamp Sae 44

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS01D5782 is a worm drive (worm gear) hose clamp rated SAE size 44, designed to secure hose and tubing connections in plumbing, HVAC, and general mechanical applications. The band is fabricated from 201 stainless steel, 0.5 inches wide, and adjusts to fit diameters ranging from 2.25 inches to 3.25 inches. The worm drive mechanism allows precise torque adjustment with a standard slotted or hex-head screwdriver or nut driver. At 0.03 pounds per unit, it is a lightweight but durable fastening component suited for professional trade use.

This clamp is appropriate for residential and light commercial installations where a reliable, corrosion-resistant band clamp is required. Common applications include securing radiator hoses, coolant lines, drain lines, flexible duct connections, and irrigation or pool plumbing fittings. The SAE 44 designation identifies the clamp range and ensures compatibility with standard North American hose and fitting sizing conventions. It is sold individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 5 units.

Key Features

• SAE size 44 worm drive clamp with 2.25 to 3.25 inch diameter adjustment range
• 201 stainless steel band resists corrosion in wet and outdoor environments
• Band width of 0.5 inches provides even clamping pressure across the hose surface
• Standard worm drive accepts slotted screwdriver or 5/16-inch hex nut driver
• Lightweight at 0.03 pounds — suitable for high-volume installation work

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation worm gear clamp for hoses and tubing with an outside diameter between 2.25 and 3.25 inches, conforming to SAE size 44 specifications.

Installation Notes

Worm gear clamps are installed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pool service professionals using a slotted screwdriver or 5/16-inch hex nut driver. Always depressurize and drain the line before removing or repositioning a clamp. Position the band so the housing does not obstruct adjacent fittings or structural members. Do not overtighten — excessive torque can cut into soft hose material and compromise the seal.
