Customer Questions & Answers
What types of hoses and diameters can each clamp in the set block?
The set includes three plastic clamps in different sizes to cover rubber or plastic hoses with approximate diameters between 5 mm and 32 mm, covering common applications in automotive work and light machinery. The small clamp is suitable for thin tubes (5–10 mm), the medium one for standard hoses (10–20 mm) and the large one for larger-diameter hoses (20–32 mm).
Is the plastic material of the clamps resistant to common automotive chemicals and operating temperature?
The clamps are made from polyamide, a polymer resistant to oils, coolants and most common brake fluids. Their operating temperature range is between -20 °C and 95 °C; outside this limit, they may deform or lose firmness. They are not suitable for prolonged use with organic fuels or for lines under high pressure.
What safety precautions should be considered when applying these clamps to brake systems?
It is essential to make sure the system is not pressurised before applying the clamps and to check afterwards that there are no leaks or hose damage. The jaw design minimises the risk of cutting the lining, but it is recommended not to exceed the closing force suggested by the manufacturer (generally below 20 N). Do not use on rigid or wire-reinforced hoses.
What performance difference is there compared with conventional metal clamps?
Unlike metal clamps, these plastic clamps are lighter, avoid scratching or marking the hose surface and make quick installation easier without additional tools. However, they provide a lower clamping force (up to around 15–20 N), so they are suitable for maintenance and testing, not for permanent blocking or high-pressure lines (>3 bar).
Does the pack include a user manual or any kind of warranty, and how are replacement parts handled?
Generally, the set is supplied without a manual but with pictograms printed on the blister pack showing the correct use. The warranty is usually 6 months for manufacturing defects and does not cover wear and tear. The manufacturer does not supply individual spare parts, so if a clamp becomes damaged, it is recommended to replace the whole set.
