Value Collection XM01B1125B Worm Gear Clamp Sae 8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION XM01B1125B is a worm drive gear clamp rated SAE Size 8, designed to secure hose and tubing connections across a wide range of trade and industrial applications. The clamp accommodates a clamping diameter range of 0.433 inches minimum to 1.0 inch maximum, making it suitable for a variety of hose sizes within that span. The band is constructed from stainless steel and carbon steel in Grade 201, offering a balance of corrosion resistance and mechanical strength. At 5/16 inches wide, the band distributes clamping force evenly around the hose circumference. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general mechanical trades install this style of clamp as a standard fastening solution for fluid and air handling lines.

This worm gear clamp is used in residential and light commercial settings wherever hose-to-barb or hose-to-nipple connections require a reliable, adjustable seal. Typical applications include water supply lines, coolant hoses, duct connections, and equipment drainage lines. The SAE 8 designation provides a standardized size reference that simplifies cross-referencing with hose assemblies and replacement schedules. It is sold individually per package, with a minimum order quantity of 5 units.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard SAE 8 worm gear clamp suitable for hoses and tubing with an outside diameter between 0.433 inches and 1.0 inch across plumbing, HVAC, and general mechanical hose connection applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, or qualified mechanical trades using a flat-blade screwdriver or a 5/16-inch hex driver to tighten the worm screw. Always relieve system pressure and shut off fluid or air supply before removing or installing hose clamps. Position the clamp so the band sits fully over the hose bead or fitting barb before tightening to avoid uneven seating. Do not overtighten, as excess torque can deform the hose or compromise the seal.
