2-Ear Pinch Clamp, Zinc Plated Steel, 0.787 - 0.905 Inch Clamping Range, 0.354 Inch Width

Description & Features

The Oetiker Inc. 2-Ear Pinch Clamp is designed to efficiently secure hoses in industrial settings, especially with heavy vibrating equipment. This zinc-plated steel clamp offers a clamping range of 0.787 - 0.905 inches and a width of 0.354 inches, ensuring a robust and reliable seal.

The one-piece design creates a tamper-proof seal without damaging the hose, ideal for air, fluid, gas, and steam lines. For optimal installation, close one ear fully before closing the second ear to create a spring-like action that maintains tension against pressure, vibration, and hose shrinkage over time.

A versatile choice for various industrial applications, this pinch clamp provides durability and consistent performance. Note that if both ears close completely, selecting a smaller size is recommended to ensure proper fit and function.

got a hose that measures right around 7/8 on the outside, is this clamp gonna fit it or am i pushing it

You want the hose OD to land inside the clamp’s 0.787 to 0.905 inch clamping range. A hose that is about 7/8 inch, or 0.875, sits right in the middle of that range, so it’s the right size window for it.

how do you actually install one of these right, do both ears get closed at the same time?
Answer by: Customer Support on Feb 24, 2026, 12:32 PM
Close the first ear all the way down before you touch the second one. Once that first ear is fully closed, then close the second ear just enough so the first ear opens back up a little, roughly a 1/16 inch gap. That slight opening builds tension into the clamp, kind of like a spring, so it holds firm against pressure, vibration, and any hose shrinkage that happens over time from heat or aging.
