Value Collection MS01D6589 Worm Gear Clamp Sae 48

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS01D6589 is a worm drive hose clamp rated SAE size 48, designed to secure hoses, tubing, and flexible fittings in plumbing, HVAC, and general mechanical applications. The band is fabricated from 201 stainless steel and measures 0.5 inches wide, with a clamping range of 2.5 to 3.5 inches in diameter. The worm gear drive allows precise torque adjustment with a standard slotted or hex-head screwdriver or nut driver, making it a reliable fastening solution for trade and industrial use. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipefitters regularly spec this style of clamp for coolant lines, condensate drain connections, and flexible duct collars.

This clamp is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a corrosion-resistant, adjustable band clamp is required. The 2.5 to 3.5 inch diameter range covers common hose and tubing sizes found in HVAC condensate systems, hydronic plumbing, and general mechanical piping. The stainless steel construction resists moisture and mild chemical exposure, making it appropriate for wet or outdoor environments. It is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 5 units.

Key Features

• SAE size 48 worm drive clamp with a 2.5 to 3.5 inch clamping range
• 201 stainless steel band and housing for corrosion resistance
• Band width of 0.5 inches provides uniform clamping pressure across the hose surface
• Worm gear drive accepts standard slotted screwdriver or 5/16 inch hex nut driver
• Lightweight at 0.03 pounds, suitable for high-quantity installs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard SAE 48 worm gear clamp for use with hoses and flexible tubing in the 2.5 to 3.5 inch outside diameter range across plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, or qualified mechanical trades. Shut off fluid flow and depressurize the system before installing or replacing any hose clamp. Position the clamp so the worm gear housing does not bear directly on a hose seam or fitting edge. Tighten incrementally to avoid cutting into flexible hose materials.
