Product Info

Use

  • Bolts in Boss Clamps are designed to bend as they are tightened. This allows the clamp to conform to the hose outside diameter.
  • Always tighten bolts to their specified torque value.
  • Periodic re-tightening of bolts is required due to “cold flow” phenomenon present in all rubber hoses.
  • Boss Clamps are for single use only! Once removed they are to be discarded.
