what's the diameter range on this clamp? got a hose that measures right around half inch and want to make sure it'll cinch down proper
Answer by: Customer Support on Jun 17, 2025, 6:26 AM
Fits hose diameters from 0.22 up to 0.63 inches, so a half-inch hose falls comfortably in that range. The band itself is 5/16 inch wide, and you tighten it with either a 1/4 inch hex driver or a standard flathead screwdriver, whichever you've got handy. Max recommended torque is 10 inch-pounds, so don't crank it past that or you risk distorting the band.

i’ve got a small hose that measures right around 3/8 inch on the outside. is this clamp gonna snug down that far?
Answer by: Customer Support on Jan 2, 2026, 7:22 PM
The adjustment range on this MAH-4 clamp runs from 0.2188 inch minimum diameter up to 0.63 inch maximum, so a hose around 3/8 inch OD lands comfortably inside that window.

Will these clamps hold up okay outside? We get some pretty nasty winters here.
Answer by: Customer Support on Nov 30, 2025, 7:35 PM
These clamps use SAE 300 series stainless steel for the band and housing, and SAE 410 series stainless steel for the screw, which gives them good corrosion resistance. That should help them last, even with winter weather.

what's the smallest hose this clamp'll actually fit around? got some real tight lines to work with
Answer by: Customer Support on Oct 31, 2025, 6:01 AM
Minimum diameter on this one runs just under a quarter inch, specifically 0.2188 inches, and tops out at 0.63 inches. If your lines fall anywhere in that range, you're in good shape. The 5/16-inch band width keeps it compact enough to work in tighter spots without crowding adjacent fittings.
