Value Collection XM01B1432B Worm Gear Clamp Sae 12

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION XM01B1432B is a worm drive gear clamp rated SAE size 12, designed to secure hose and tubing connections across a wide range of trade and industrial applications. The clamp accommodates diameters from 0.5 to 1.25 inches and features a 5/16-inch-wide band constructed from grade 201 stainless steel and carbon steel. The worm drive mechanism allows precise, tool-driven tightening to maintain consistent clamping force on hose barbs, fittings, and flexible connections. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general mechanical contractors reach for this clamp type when a reliable, corrosion-resistant connection is required on flexible hose assemblies.

This clamp is suited for residential and light commercial applications including HVAC condensate drain lines, radiator and coolant hoses, irrigation connections, and plumbing drain or supply tubing. The SAE 12 size classification makes it straightforward to specify and replace in the field. The stainless steel and carbon steel band construction holds up in moderately corrosive and damp environments common in mechanical rooms and equipment enclosures.

Key Features

• SAE size 12 worm drive clamp with 0.5 to 1.25 inch diameter range
• Grade 201 stainless steel and carbon steel band for corrosion resistance
• 5/16-inch band width provides broad clamping surface to reduce hose distortion
• Worm drive design allows incremental tightening with a standard screwdriver or nut driver
• Lightweight at 0.03 pounds — minimal added weight on hose assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a standard SAE 12 worm gear clamp suitable for flexible hose and tubing with an outside diameter between 0.5 and 1.25 inches across HVAC, plumbing, and general mechanical installations.

Installation Notes

Install and tighten using a flat-blade screwdriver or 5/16-inch hex nut driver. Shut off fluid flow and relieve any pressure in the line before removing or replacing a clamp on an active system. Position the clamp screw housing away from sharp edges or heat sources that could compromise the band over time. Do not overtighten — snug the clamp until the hose is firmly seated without deforming the hose wall.
