What can you use hose clamps for?

You can also use hose clamps to assemble large pipes for electrical installations. Thus, a hose clamp can be used for many different purposes, and you can use them for projects both indoors and outdoors. This also means that most types of hose clamps are made from a stainless material.
Hose clamps may seem less important when you are involved in a larger pipe installation, such as in a bathroom. Nevertheless, it is essential that the quality is top-notch when you choose your new hose clamps. When you buy hose clamps from Ahlsell, you can be assured of a strong and durable solution at a good price. You will definitely find a hose clamp here on the page that you can use for your project with a client.
Which type of hose clamp should you choose?
When selecting the right hose clamp for the job, you must first ensure that the hose clamp is the correct size. It is especially important that the hose clamp fits the thickness of the hose you are going to mount. The clamp should preferably have a width that can wrap around the hose without coming apart at the point where it needs to hold together. Otherwise, you risk that the hose clamp cannot grip properly – and thus will not hold tight.
At the same time, the hose clamp must not be so large that it can wrap around itself multiple times. As a rule of thumb, you can assume that the diameter of the hose clamp should be approximately 1-2 centimeters larger than the diameter of the hose you want to secure. This way, you are on the safe side. You will find several different sizes of hose clamps here on the page, allowing you to freely choose between both small and large hose clamps.
How to install your hose clamp
You can tighten a hose clamp with a regular Phillips screwdriver, or you can opt to buy a dedicated hose clamp screwdriver. When securing the hose clamp with a screwdriver, you tighten while holding the clamp with your fingers.
If space is limited, it might be tricky to tighten the hose clamp, as you may risk the screwdriver slipping off the screw when trying to tighten the clamp. In such cases, you can advantageously use a waterpump pliers for the job. This way, you can hold the hose clamp and hose in place while also tightening the clamp – making the work easier for you.
