* NP = Non Perforated Style Clamp

MaxTorque – This is the maximum torque of the clamp over a steel manderal which provides a constant environment.

Recommended Installation Torque is 50 – 70% of the max torque. This allows for the differences in durometer of the rubber or hose used. Your particular application will vary but should fall within the 50-70% level from max torque.

Specialty and Custom Clamp Offerings
It may be possible to find a suitable clamping product from our current and standardized line of products. However, additional material configurations and custom options are available and if you have a volume OEM application, our engineers would be delighted to work with you and your application to give you the best and most efficient clamp option.
