## 🔧 Product Description

Brand-new genuine Volvo Penta attaching clamp used to secure the engine-oil dipstick guide tube on selected TAD5 and TAD7 industrial engines. The shaped clamp holds the guide tube against the engine at the correct angle, preventing vibration, fatigue cracking and inaccurate dipstick seating.

-   One clamp supplied; guide tube, dipstick and screw are separate
-   Engine type: Volvo Penta 5- and 7-litre industrial diesel

## 🔌 Function

Supports the dipstick guide tube so it remains sealed, correctly positioned and resistant to engine vibration.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Guide tube vibrating or contacting adjacent parts
-   Oil seepage around a cracked tube or lower seal
-   Dipstick difficult to insert fully
-   Clamp bent, cracked or missing
-   False oil-level readings caused by displaced guide tube

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Refit clamps in their original positions and in the original quantity — a missing support leaves a hose, pipe or harness run to flex and fail by fatigue
-   Position the clamp so the item it holds cannot chafe against structure and is held clear of hot or moving parts
-   Tighten enough to hold, not to crush; a clamp that bites into a hose wall or cable insulation causes the failure it was fitted to prevent
-   Renew clamps whose rubber lining or insert has perished and any that have corroded or lost their spring, and use corrosion-resistant hardware in the marine environment
