This guide is for anyone needing a secure and reliable connection for flexible hoses, pipes, or tubes in various environments like the home, garden, workshop, or garage. The Faithfull Hose Clip provides a high-strength, snag-free seal essential for water or air tight applications. A key caveat is ensuring you select the correct size for your specific hose diameter to achieve optimal sealing.

They are ideal for securing flexible rubber hoses, plastic hoses, and flexible pipes to create water or air-tight seals in domestic, garden, workshop, and garage applications.
You can use a slotted screwdriver, a spanner, a nutdriver, or a dedicated hose clip driver.
Select a clip whose adjustment range encompasses the outer diameter of the hose when it is fitted onto the connecting spigot.
These clips are designed for general-purpose sealing. For high-pressure pneumatic or hydraulic systems, specialized clamps may be required.
It means the band of the clip is solid, without holes, which provides higher thread strength and a smoother surface to prevent snagging or damaging the hose during tightening.
Periodically check for tightness and clean with a damp cloth. The zinc plating helps prevent rust, but avoid harsh chemical exposure.
The screw head size for tightening is 7mm.
Check that the correct clip size was used and that it is adequately tightened. Ensure the hose is correctly seated on the fitting and that the clip is centered over the junction.
Ensure the correct tool is being used and that it is properly seated in the drive nut. Check for any debris in the worm drive mechanism.
Clean the clip with a damp cloth. While zinc plating offers resistance, severe environmental conditions can still affect it. Consider replacing the clip if rust is extensive.
This usually indicates the clip is too small or has been overtightened. Ensure the correct size is selected and apply firm, but not excessive, pressure when tightening.
Setup: To install a Faithfull Hose Clip, slide the clip over the hose end to be secured. Place the hose onto the fitting and position the clip over the hose and fitting junction. Tighten the hex-shaped drive nut using a suitable tool (slotted screwdriver, spanner, or nutdriver) until a secure and watertight/airtight seal is achieved. Ensure not to overtighten, which could damage the hose.
Compatibility: These hose clips are designed for use with flexible rubber hoses, plastic hoses, and flexible pipes. They are suitable for a wide range of applications requiring a seal, from garden hoses to workshop air lines. Ensure the selected clip's adjustment range (e.g., 110-140mm for the 6B size) matches the outer diameter of the hose when fitted over the connecting spigot.
Care: To maintain the performance and appearance of your hose clips, periodically check them for tightness, especially after initial installation or significant temperature fluctuations. Clean any visible dirt or debris with a damp cloth. While the zinc plating provides corrosion resistance, avoid prolonged exposure to highly corrosive chemicals or environments.
