This spring-style hose clamp secures a washer's rubber hose to its fitting to maintain a tight, leak-resistant seal. Replacing a weakened clamp helps stop drips and keeps the hose firmly in place during operation.

• Provides constant spring tension to hold a rubber hose on its port
• Helps prevent leaks at the connection point
• Resists vibration so the hose doesn't back off the fitting
• Common signs include water at a hose joint, a loose/detached hose, or a rusted/broken clamp

• Disconnect power and turn off water supply before servicing
• Place a towel or pan to catch residual water from hoses
• Use pliers to compress the ears, slide off the old clamp, position the new clamp behind the hose bead, and release evenly
• After reassembly, run a quick test cycle and check for leaks

Symptoms of a bad clamp include:

• Water leaking from hose connections
• Hoses coming loose or detaching during operation
• Visible rust or damage on the clamp
• Poor water flow or pressure issues

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore models.

A replacement hose clamp that secures a flexible hose to its fitting to help prevent leaks and disconnections. Restores a tight, reliable seal so hoses stay seated during normal use. What it does:

• Helps stop hose pull-off that can cause water leaks or appliance interruptions.
• Commonly replaced when clamps are corroded, bent, cracked or missing.
• Works as a low-cost repair to restore a secure hose connection without replacing the hose assembly.

• Disconnect power to the appliance and shut off the water supply before servicing.
• Use the correct tool (slip-joint pliers for spring-style clamps or a screwdriver for screw-type clamps) and avoid pinching the hose.
• Inspect the hose and fitting for damage; replace the hose if it's cracked or excessively worn.
• After installing, restore power/water and run a short test cycle or check for leaks.
