Value Collection MS09D146168 Constant Torque Hose Clamp

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS09D146168 is a constant torque hose clamp designed to maintain consistent clamping pressure across temperature and pressure fluctuations in hose and tube connections. Built from stainless steel with a Grade 301/410 stainless steel screw, this clamp resists corrosion in wet, chemical-exposed, and outdoor environments. It spans a hose outside diameter range of 5.75 to 6.625 inches and measures 0.625 inches wide and 0.70 inches in band thickness. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and mechanical contractors install this clamp on larger-diameter hoses where standard worm-drive clamps lose tension due to thermal cycling or vibration.

This clamp is suited for residential and commercial applications involving large-diameter flexible hoses, including HVAC ductwork connections, coolant lines, radiator hoses, and industrial fluid transfer systems. The constant torque design makes it particularly well-suited for installations subject to repeated thermal expansion and contraction, where maintaining a reliable seal over time is critical. It is sold individually and is a direct fit for hoses measuring between 5.75 and 6.625 inches in outside diameter.

Key Features

• Constant torque mechanism maintains consistent clamping pressure through thermal cycling
• Fits hose outside diameters from 5.75 to 6.625 inches
• Band width of 0.625 inches distributes clamping load across the hose surface
• Stainless steel construction with Grade 301/410 stainless steel screw for corrosion resistance
• Band thickness of 0.70 inches provides structural rigidity under pressure
• Sold as a single unit with no minimum order beyond one piece

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service clamp for applications requiring a constant torque clamp on hoses with an outside diameter between 5.75 and 6.625 inches.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians, plumbers, or mechanical contractors using a standard hex or socket driver. Depressurize and drain the line before removing or installing any hose clamp. Position the clamp so the band seats evenly around the hose without overlapping fittings or beads. Follow applicable mechanical codes and the hose or fitting manufacturer guidelines for final seating torque and inspection intervals.
