Ideal Clamp Products stainless steel worm-drive clamp (SKU 6864) secures hoses, ducting and flexible connections with an adjustable band engineered for reliable, leak-resistant performance. The clamp fits hose diameters from 2 1/2" to 4 1/2" and uses a slotted hex-head screw that accepts a flat-head screwdriver or a 1/4" nut driver for fast, controlled tightening.

  • Stainless steel construction resists corrosion and provides long service life in wet, outdoor, and irrigation environments.
  • Worm-drive mechanism gives uniform compression around the hose for improved sealing and reduced slippage.
  • Slotted hex-head screw offers dual compatibility with a screwdriver or nut driver for flexible installation.
  • Common applications include irrigation systems, plumbing connections, pool equipment, HVAC ducting, and light automotive uses.
  • Size range covers 2 1/2"–4 1/2" hoses and ducting without modification; suitable where adjustable clamp coverage is needed.
  • Inspect and re-tighten after initial installation; periodic checks help maintain a secure seal over time.

This worm-drive clamp is a practical, corrosion-resistant fastening solution when adjustable fit and dependable retention are required. Follow hose and equipment manufacturer guidance for recommended torque values and installation practices. If greater retention is needed, use multiple clamps spaced evenly to distribute load and minimize movement.
