This spring-style hose clamp secures flexible appliance hoses to fittings, helping prevent leaks and loose connections. It's a small but critical fastener that keeps water and drain hoses sealed under normal operation. What it does:
- Holds a rubber or plastic hose firmly onto a barb or spigot to stop leaks
- Prevents hose slippage that can cause water pooling or drip symptoms
- Maintains a compressive seal that resists vibration and thermal cycling
- Commonly used on drain, fill, and circulation hoses in dishwashers and washers
What's included: One spring-style hose clamp as shown Install notes:
- Disconnect power and shut off water supply before starting work
- Use appropriate pliers (hose clamp or needle-nose) to expand and position the clamp
- Ensure the clamp sits evenly over the hose barb and releases fully to secure the hose
- Inspect the hose and connection for damage; replace hoses if they are cracked or excessively worn
