Clamping Band GEKO GBS W1 76–80 mm (pack sizes 5/25/100)

GEKO GBS W1 clamping band for 76–80 mm diameters is a corrosion-resistant metal hose clamp intended for securing hoses, pipes and ducts in automotive, plumbing and general repair applications. Supplied in pack sizes of 5, 25 or 100 pieces, the clamp features a simple wrap-and-tighten design that fits tubes and flexible hoses within the specified diameter range. The W1 rating indicates basic corrosion protection suitable for indoor or protected outdoor environments where moderate exposure to moisture is expected.

Advantages

The clamp offers a reliable mechanical connection through a continuous band and adjustable tightening, providing even pressure around the circumference of the hose or pipe. Its metal construction and W1 corrosion class ensure dimensional stability and resistance to light corrosion, while the available pack sizes make it convenient for single repairs or larger maintenance tasks. Installation requires no special tools beyond a screwdriver or nut driver compatible with the clamp’s fastener.

Suitable for

• Securing automotive coolant, intake or ventilation hoses
• Connecting plumbing hoses and ducting in non-corrosive or mildly corrosive environments
• General workshop and maintenance tasks where a 76–80 mm clamp is required

Key specifications

• Nominal clamping range: 76–80 mm
• Material: metal band and fastener with W1 corrosion classification
• Closure type: adjustable screw-tightened band
• Pack sizes: available in packs of 5, 25 or 100 pieces
• Typical applications: hoses, pipes and duct connections

How to use

Position the clamping band around the hose or pipe so the band fully encircles the fitting area and the fastener is accessible. Tighten the screw fastener with a suitable screwdriver or nut driver until the band applies uniform pressure and the hose or pipe is firmly held in place without deformation. Avoid over-tightening which can damage flexible hoses or compress sealing elements. For repeated use, inspect the band and fastener for corrosion or thread damage before reinstallation.

Usage recommendations

For outdoor, marine, or highly corrosive environments, choose a higher corrosion class (e.g., W2 or stainless steel) instead of W1. When clamping soft or thin-walled hoses, consider using a protective sleeve or washer under the band to prevent cutting or indentation. Follow application-specific torque recommendations where available to ensure a secure, leak-free connection.
