⚙️ Key Features

• Fits 23 applications across V series and TAD engines

🔌 Function

Draws a band tight around a hose over its spigot, holding the joint sealed against pressure and the hose on its stub.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Coolant, oil or fuel weeping from under the clamp
• Hose creeping off its spigot or able to be twisted by hand
• Band or screw housing rusted, or the band cracked at a slot
• Screw seized, or the drive slot chewed out
• Band bedded so deep into the hose that it has cut into it

🛠️ Service Notes

• Three hose clamps here are published at 0.005 kg and two more at 0.002 kg — weight will not separate them, so order by part number
• Check the hose underneath for a deep cut where the old band sat; a clamp will not seal a hose it has already bitten through
