Hose Clamp Dedra 160–180 mm, 9 mm band width, stainless steel W2

Dedra worm-drive hose clamp with an adjustable diameter of 160–180 mm and a 9 mm band width, made from W2 stainless steel. This clamp provides a mechanical clamping solution for medium-diameter hoses and pipes, offering resistance to moderate corrosion and reliable retention in automotive, plumbing and HVAC applications. The design uses a slotted band and worm gear to achieve even compression around flexible hose materials.

Advantages

The stainless steel W2 construction balances corrosion resistance and cost-effectiveness for general-purpose use. The 9 mm wide band distributes clamping force to reduce deformation of rubber or silicone hoses. The adjustable 160–180 mm diameter range covers a variety of medium-sized hose connections, allowing a single clamp to fit multiple fittings. The worm-drive mechanism enables precise torque adjustment for controlled sealing pressure.

Suitable for

• Securing coolant, air intake and vacuum hoses in automotive maintenance and repair
• Clamping hoses and flexible ducting in HVAC installations
• Plumbing connections with rubber or reinforced silicone hoses
• General workshop or industrial applications requiring medium-diameter hose retention

Key specifications

• Adjustable diameter range: 160–180 mm
• Band width: 9 mm
• Material: stainless steel, W2 grade
• Clamping type: worm-drive (slotted band with screw mechanism)
• Suitable for medium-diameter hoses and flexible piping

How to use

Position the clamp so the band encircles the hose and the fitting evenly, ensuring the clamp sits over the hose reinforcement or the thickest section for best sealing. Tighten the worm screw gradually with a suitable screwdriver or socket, applying even torque until the hose is held securely without visible crushing or distortion. After initial installation, inspect the joint under operating conditions and, if necessary, re-torque to maintain a reliable seal.

Usage recommendations

For outdoor or highly corrosive environments, consider using higher-grade stainless steel clamps. During installation, avoid overtightening to prevent damage to the hose material; apply steady, moderate torque and recheck after the first operating cycle.
