Troubleshooting

Clip does not fit the hose

Verify the hose and fitting diameters. The BHC2010S fits diameters from 54 mm to 62 mm. Ensure you are not trying to fit it onto a hose that is too large or too small for its range.

Hose still leaks after installation

Check if the clip is tightened sufficiently. Ensure the clip is evenly seated around the hose and fitting. Inspect the hose for cracks or damage that may prevent a proper seal, and replace the hose if necessary.

Clip appears rusted or corroded

While designed for durability, extreme conditions can cause corrosion. Inspect regularly and replace if significant corrosion is present, as this can weaken the clip's hold.
