🔌 Function

The clamp holds fuel hoses or lines securely to their mounting points, maintaining correct routing and preventing movement. This protects the fuel line from chafing, strain and vibration damage during engine operation.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Corrosion, pitting or rust weakening the clamp body
• Loss of clamping tension allowing the hose or line to move or vibrate
• Cracked or fractured clamp resulting in an unsupported fuel line
• Chafing or wear marks on the hose where the clamp has loosened
• Fuel weeping or seepage at a connection caused by an unsecured line

🛠️ Service Notes

• Fit a new clamp rather than reusing one that has been distorted, stretched or corroded; a band that has been drawn down onto a hose once rarely grips evenly again
• Use the correct size and type for the joint — an over-large clamp will not draw down evenly and can cut into a soft hose instead of gripping it
• Position the clamp fully over the spigot or pipe bead, clear of the hose end, and tighten only until the joint is secure; over-tightening crushes hoses, pipes and cable insulation
• Set the screw or head where you can reach it for later checks, and make sure the clamp is not resting anywhere it will chafe a neighbouring hose or harness
• Re-check tightness after the first run up to temperature, as hoses relax and settle once they have been heated
