Constant Tension Hose Clamps

Constant Tension Hose Clamps are engineered to provide a reliable and self-adjusting clamping force, particularly beneficial in applications where temperature fluctuations or hose material compression can lead to leaks with standard clamps. Featuring a spring mechanism integrated into the worm gear design, these clamps automatically expand and contract with changes in hose and fluid temperatures, maintaining a consistent and optimal seal pressure. This ensures a leak-free connection over a wider range of operating conditions, enhancing the longevity and performance of critical systems.  

Features

• Incorporates a spring mechanism to automatically adjust clamping force with temperature and pressure variations.
• Maintains a consistent and optimal seal, preventing leaks caused by expansion, contraction, or hose creep.
• Features a standard worm gear drive for easy installation and adjustment.
• Constructed from durable materials, often including stainless steel, for corrosion resistance and longevity.
• Provides superior sealing performance compared to traditional worm drive clamps in dynamic environments.
• Offers increased reliability and reduces the need for retightening.
• Available in various sizes to accommodate a wide range of hose diameters.
• Ideal for automotive cooling systems, turbocharger hoses, silicone hoses, and other applications subject to temperature changes.
• Provides a more secure and leak-proof connection over extended periods.
• Offers resistance to vibration and mechanical stress.
