The main advantage is their enhanced gripping capability, which provides a more secure and reliable connection compared to standard hose clips, reducing the risk of leaks.
BS5315 is a British Standard for hose clips, and Kitemark approval signifies that the product has been independently tested and certified to meet these standards, assuring quality and performance.
They feature external pressed threads, meaning the threads are on the outside of the band, and fully rounded edges. This design prevents the sharp edges from cutting into or damaging the hose material.
The HCJ85A assortment pack includes hose clips ranging in size from 9.5mm to 55mm in diameter.
Yes, their design provides superior grip, making them suitable for many medium to high-pressure applications where a secure connection is critical. However, always ensure the clip is correctly sized and tightened for the specific application.
Store the hose clips in a dry place to prevent the zinc plating from corroding. Keep them organized, perhaps in their original packaging or a compartmentalized container.
These clips are generally suitable for many automotive fluid lines, including fuel lines, provided they are the correct size and the material is compatible. However, always consult specific vehicle or fuel system guidelines for recommended clamp types.
Ensure you have selected the correct size clip for the hose diameter. The clip may be too large, or the hose may be too thin. Check that the screw thread is clean and free of debris.
Check that the screw thread is properly aligned and free from dirt, grit, or corrosion. A small amount of lubricant can sometimes help, but ensure it is compatible with the hose material.
You may be over-tightening the clamp. Reduce the pressure. Also, ensure the rounded edges of the clip are properly seated against the hose and not catching on any rough surfaces.
While zinc-plated, prolonged exposure to moisture or corrosive substances can cause corrosion. Clean the clip and apply a suitable protectant if the environment is harsh. Consider using stainless steel clips for highly corrosive applications.
