Single Ear Hose Clamps

Single Ear Hose Clamps, also known as O-Clamps or Pinch Clamps, provide a quick, simple, and cost-effective method for creating a tight and reliable seal on hoses and tubes. Their unique design features a single "ear" that, when crimped using specialized pliers, exerts a consistent radial force around the hose, ensuring a leak-proof connection. These clamps are tamper-resistant and offer a lightweight, compact solution suitable for a wide range of low-pressure applications.  

Features

  • Simple and efficient one-piece design.
  • Provides a 360-degree uniform sealing pressure around the hose.
  • Tamper-resistant once properly installed.
  • Lightweight and compact design.
  • Cost-effective fastening solution.
  • Quick and easy installation using single ear clamp pliers.
  • Available in various materials, including carbon steel and stainless steel, for different levels of corrosion resistance.
  • Smooth, burr-free inner band to prevent damage to the hose.
  • Offers a permanent and secure connection.
  • Suitable for a wide range of low-pressure applications in automotive, industrial, and domestic settings.
