Value Collection MS01D89140 Worm Gear Clamp Sae 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS01D89140 is a worm drive gear clamp rated to SAE Size 80, designed for securing hoses, tubing, and fittings in plumbing, HVAC, and general mechanical applications. The stainless steel band spans a clamping range of 3-1/2 inches to 5-1/2 inches in diameter, making it suitable for medium-to-large diameter connections. The band is 0.5 inches wide and constructed from Grade 201 stainless steel, offering corrosion resistance in wet or humid service environments. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and mechanical contractors install this clamp type where a reliable, adjustable circumferential seal is required on flexible hose assemblies.

This clamp is used across residential and light commercial installations wherever flexible hose or tubing must be secured to a barbed or spigot fitting. Typical applications include HVAC condensate drain lines, radiator hose connections, duct sleeve joints, and plumbing supply or drain assemblies using flexible tubing in the 3-1/2 inch to 5-1/2 inch outside diameter range. The worm drive mechanism allows precise tightening with a standard slotted or hex-drive screwdriver.

Key Features

• SAE Size 80 rating with a clamping range of 3-1/2 inches to 5-1/2 inches diameter
• Grade 201 stainless steel band and housing for corrosion resistance
• Band width of 0.5 inches provides broad contact area across the hose surface
• Worm drive mechanism allows incremental, tool-adjustable tightening
• Compact form factor at approximately 0.03 pounds — suitable for tight installation spaces

Compatibility

Designed as a standard SAE 80 worm gear clamp for use with flexible hoses and tubing in the 3-1/2 inch to 5-1/2 inch outside diameter range across HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a slotted screwdriver or appropriate hex driver to drive the worm screw. Shut off fluid flow and relieve system pressure before removing or repositioning any hose clamp. Position the clamp band behind the end of the hose or fitting bead before tightening to prevent slippage. Avoid overtightening, which can cut into soft hose materials or deform the fitting.
