Description

This hose clamp secures a rubber or plastic hose to its fitting on your appliance, maintaining a tight, leak-resistant seal under vibration and pressure. Replace when the old clamp is rusted, bent, or no longer holds tension. What it does:

• Clamps around a hose to grip the fitting and seal the joint
• Helps prevent drips, leaks, and hose blow-off at the connection

Install notes:

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Slide clamp onto hose, seat hose fully on the fitting, then position clamp just behind the bead/raised lip
• Tighten or compress evenly with the appropriate tool; avoid overtightening that could damage the hose
• After reassembly, run a short test and inspect for leaks
