About Measuring Hose and Tube Clamps
What's the best way to determine the clamp size you'll need? Simply measure the outside diameter of your hose with the fitting installed. Some clamps accommodate a range of sizes, so be sure the size you need falls in the middle of that range.

Build-Your-Own Worm-Drive Clamps for Firm Hose and Tube
Here's everything you need to make your own 3" diameter and larger custom-length worm-drive clamps. Cut a length of band from the continuous roll and attach a housing and a screw. Use a band splicer to attach two lengths of band for an even larger clamp. Clamps are not recommended for soft hose and tube, such as silicone. Do not exceed the maximum torque or clamps may be damaged.
410 stainless steel offers good corrosion resistance.
301 stainless steel offers very good corrosion resistance.
Note: When choosing a clamp, measure the outside diameter of your hose or tube with the fitting installed.

Banding for Build-Your-Own Low-Profile Band Clamps for Firm Hose
Keep this banding on hand for both permanent connections and emergency repairs. You'll need an installation tool and a buckle (both sold separately) to create a band clamp. Banding comes in a dispenser carton. It has smooth, rounded edges to protect your hose from cuts.
Galvanized steel banding has fair corrosion resistance.
201 stainless steel banding has good corrosion resistance.
304 stainless steel banding has very good corrosion resistance.
316 stainless steel banding has excellent corrosion resistance.
Black polyester-coated 201 stainless steel banding has excellent abrasion and UV resistance.
Note: The breaking strength listed is the maximum tension that can be applied to the banding. For an extra-strong clamp, wrap the banding around twice, threading it through the buckle each time.

Build-Your-Own Worm-Drive Clamps for Soft Hose and Tube
Build your own 2" diameter and larger smooth-band worm-drive clamps for hose and tube. Cut a length of band from the continuous roll and attach a housing and a screw. These clamps are best for soft hose and tube but also work with firm hose and tube.
410 stainless steel offers good corrosion resistance.
200/300 series stainless steel has very good corrosion resistance.
Note: When choosing a clamp, measure the outside diameter of your hose or tube with the fitting installed.

High-Temperature Build-Your-Own Worm-Drive Clamps for Soft Hose and Tube
Use this banding to create 4" diameter and larger worm-drive clamps for high-temperature applications. It has ridges on one side for the housing to ride upon—this leaves the reverse side smooth with no sharp edges to worry about.
This banding is best for soft hose and tube but also works with firm hose and tube. It can also be used to clamp pipe, attach signs, and connect tubing. It is furnished in a dispenser carton. To install, cut the banding to your desired length with wire snips, feed it through the housing (sold separately), and tighten the screw with a slotted screwdriver or hex nutdriver.
Note: The breaking strength listed is the maximum tension that can be applied to the banding.

Light Duty Metal Strapping
Use this strapping for securing pipe coverings as well as for packaging. Metal strapping is strong and will not stretch when wrapped around objects. The coil is wound like a roll of tape. To install, cut the strapping to your desired length with wire cutters, feed it through a buckle, and tighten.
Aluminum is lightweight and corrosion resistant. Tension it by hand or with a tensioner. 304 stainless steel is more corrosion resistant than aluminum but is not as corrosion resistant as 316 stainless steel. Use a tensioner to tighten. 316 stainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance. Tighten with a tensioner.
Note: To match with compatible strapping accessories, choose items for use with the same material and strapping group number.
