The Shields 18-720-4000 is a heavy-duty marine-grade T-bolt hose clamp designed specifically for exhaust and intake applications in harsh marine environments. Constructed from corrosion-resistant 316 stainless steel, this clamp provides reliable performance in both above and below waterline installations.

Key Features:

• 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in marine environments
• 3/4" wide band provides full 360° clamping surface for secure, leak-free connections
• Designed to work with corrugated exhaust hose and smooth-bore hose
• Extra-long 1/4" bolt with nylon insert locknut prevents loosening from vibration
• Suitable for exhaust systems, intake systems, and any below waterline application
• Maximum torque specification: 75 in-lbs

This T-bolt clamp delivers the strength and durability required for marine exhaust systems where standard worm-drive clamps may fail. The wide band design distributes clamping force evenly, preventing hose damage while ensuring a secure seal even under high temperature and vibration conditions.
