🔌 Function

Clamps a cooling hose onto its stub so the joint stays sealed and the hose cannot creep off under pressure and vibration.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Coolant seeping from under the hose end
• Coolant loss that only shows when the system is hot and pressurised
• Clamp found corroded, with the band pitted or the screw seized
• Band having cut into the hose wall from over-tightening
• Hose end swollen or hardened where the clamp has been sitting

🛠️ Service Notes

• Match the clamp to the hose outside diameter so the band closes well within its working range rather than at the very end of its travel
• Position it over the spigot behind the bead or barb, with the screw where a driver or spanner can still reach it once everything is refitted
• Tighten to seal, not to crush — an over-tightened worm-drive clamp cuts into soft hose and starts the leak you were trying to stop
• Renew clamps when a hose is changed rather than reusing them, and keep band, housing and screw all marine-grade stainless so the clamp does not corrode against itself
• Where two clamps are fitted to one connection, stagger the screw heads and recheck both after the first running period
