A small spring-style hose clamp that secures appliance hoses and tubing to fittings to help prevent leaks and hose separation. Simple, durable clamp replacement for worn or damaged hose connections. What it does

• Holds rubber or plastic hoses firmly on barbed fittings to maintain a sealed connection.
• Helps stop water or air leaks caused by loose or deteriorated hose attachments.
• Reduces movement and rattling at hose connection points during operation.
• Commonly replaced when clamps are corroded, stretched, or no longer spring-tight.

• Disconnect power and water supply before servicing the appliance.
• Use pliers to open the spring clamp, slide into position, then release so it seats evenly around the hose.
• Inspect the hose and fitting for damage; replace hose if cracked or brittle.
• Wear eye protection and gloves; ensure clamp sits behind the hose barb for a secure seal.
