How to size it
Measure the hose's outside diameter where the clamp will sit. Make sure it falls within 64-76mm. If it's very close to either end, consider a different size or a double-clamp setup.
Installation tips
- Fit the clamp loosely over the hose before connecting.
- Push the hose fully onto the fitting.
- Position and tighten the clamp evenly.
- Run the system and check for leaks or air entry.
Safety
- Depressurise lines before adjusting clamps.
- Replace damaged or rusted clamps rather than over-tightening them.
