T-H Marine 16700040X-DP Stepless Ear Hose Clamp 31.6mm Stainless Steel

The T-H Marine 16700040X-DP is an Oetiker-style stepless ear hose clamp designed for secure marine plumbing and hose connections. This single-ear clamp features a clamping range of 28.4mm to 31.6mm (approximately 1.12" to 1.24"), making it ideal for a variety of hose sizes commonly found in marine applications.

Key Features:

• Premium 304 stainless steel construction provides exceptional corrosion resistance in harsh marine environments
• Stepless design delivers uniform 360-degree compression for leak-free seals without gaps or protrusions
• 7mm band width with 0.6mm thickness concentrates clamping force for maximum holding power
• Specially formed smooth edges prevent damage to hoses during installation and use
• Spring-effect dimple compensates for thermal expansion and contraction
• Adjustable ear design accommodates component tolerances while maintaining constant pressure

This marine-grade clamp is perfect for securing fuel lines, cooling system hoses, livewell plumbing, aerator lines, and other critical connections on boats. The stepless design eliminates the weak points found in traditional worm-gear clamps, providing superior vibration resistance and long-term reliability. Requires an ear clamp crimping tool for installation (sold separately).
