Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How to properly position a hose clamp?
A. Ear hose clamps come in a variety of shapes, styles and sizes. Most of them follow the same approaches for proper placement on a hose/ tube/ pipe fitting. After securely pressing the hose on the mating part, place the hose clamp towards the hose end (with approximately 1/4 inch space between the clamp and the end of the hose).
Q. What types of clamps does Oetiker offer?
A. Oetiker offers a broad range of clamps, including screw, ear, spring, wire, worm gear and plastic clamps.
Q. What is the difference between 1 and 2 ear clamps?
A. Oetiker 2 ear clamps have a larger clamping range than the 1 ear clamps. 2 ear clamps offer high clamping force, creating a spring effect during contraction and extension of the hose.
Q. How do you remove an Oetiker clamp?
A. Users can use a rotating / bowl nose cutter or a side cutter for removing Oetiker clamps. However, rotating cutters are not recommended as they might tamper or damage the hose while cutting the clamp.
Q. Are Oetiker clamps reusable?
A. Raptor Supplies also offers Oetiker stepless low profile clamps that are reusable in nature. They can be opened and installed multiple times and can be mounted both radially & axially. Oetiker's low profile, universal, screw & profile clamps are also reusable.
Q. How to measure the size of an ear clamp?
A. Analyse and measure the outer diameter (OD) of the hose installed on fitting. Choose a hose clamp in a way that the outer diameter of the hose falls approximately in the middle of the clamping range.
Q. How do we tighten an Oetiker 10100011 hose clamp?
A. To tighten a clamp, squeeze the clamp with one hand so that the end opposite to the driver slides into the sleeve holding. Then, turn the driver clockwise with a wrench or screwdriver so that the threads present on the driver engage the slots on the clamp. Continue turning the driver until the clamp tightens around the hose tightly and securely.
