What are the different Clamp Types by Industry?

From plumbing to hospitality, many industries use hose clamps. Hoses transport liquids or gases and help machines work properly. Without reliable clamps for pipes and hoses, the equipment will fail. Choosing the right type of clamp is essential for proper machine performance.

Unique applications for each industry require specific functions of hose clamps. Let's take a look at some common industries and which types of clamp work best for them.

Automotive Industry

Cars require scaffold tube clamps for many different hoses and pipes, such as radiator hoses, fuel hoses, air intakes, exhaust pipes and turbocharger systems. These parts are subject to vibration, elevated temperatures and pressures.

T-bolt clamps are an excellent choice for automotive hoses and pipes. T-bolt clamps are designed to ensure durability, under constant pressure and can withstand constant vibration and temperature changes.

It is also reusable and easy to remove and install, even in confined spaces. This comes in handy when auto maintenance. Technicians can install them without disassembling additional parts of the vehicle or using special tools.

Pinch and ear clamps are also common in the automotive industry. Designed for quick and simple installation, it is ideal for your DIY mechanics.

Beverage And Hospitality

In the beverage industry, creating a high-pressure seal and protecting pipes from damage is a top priority when choosing fasteners. Improper closure or damage to the tube may cause the beverage dispenser to completely stop functioning.

Pinch clamps are ideal for beverage dispensers. They are created taking into account protection and can be used for all pipe materials without causing damage.

Agriculture And Irrigation

Several pieces of agricultural equipment used hose fasteners, which need to be strong, flexible and corrosion-resistant.

Worm clamps, which can withstand high torque and harsh weather elements, are ideal for agricultural machinery. Crop sprayers, fertilizer spreaders and seed drills all use worm drive connections, which provide the strength needed to maintain seals.

Irrigation systems rely on clamps to connect poly-underground pipes and provide reliable seals. Pinch clamps, which come in both welded and mechanical designs, can suit a range of irrigation needs. Murray's Keystone pinch clamps provide the industry's strongest seal.

Plumbing And Water Flow Management

When it comes to plumbing, aluminum tube clamps must be highly corrosion resistant and create a tight seal to maintain proper water flow and prevent leaking.
