Ideal Tridon Flex-Gear 45 Series Stainless Steel Hose Clamp

Ideal Tridon Flex-Gear 45 Series All Stainless Steel #562 Hose Clamp

The 45550 Ideal Tridon Flex-Gear® 45 Series Hose Clamp is an all-stainless steel clamp built for demanding applications where temperature swings and vibration can cause ordinary clamps to loosen. Designed with a Belleville spring system, it automatically adjusts to hose expansion and contraction, maintaining consistent band tension and helping eliminate “cold flow” leakage. With a working range of 4-3/4" to 5-5/8", this clamp delivers a dependable, long-lasting seal—because hoses shouldn’t have a mind of their own.
