An American type hose clamp (also known as a worm drive clamp or SAE hose clamp) consists of a stainless steel or galvanized steel band with a worm-gear screw that tightens around a hose to create a secure, leak-free connection.

Sunhose American type hose clamps are manufactured to SAE J1508 standards, ensuring compatibility with global automotive, industrial, and agricultural applications.

Available in all stainless steel (SS304 or SS316), stainless band with zinc-plated screw, and galvanized steel. All stainless construction (W4) is recommended for marine, chemical, and food-processing environments.

Clamp range covers approximately 8 mm to 270 mm (5/16 inch to 10-5/8 inch) through multiple series. Each clamp has a clamping range overlap with adjacent sizes for complete coverage.

Typical torque is 2–4 Nm depending on clamp width and size. Over-tightening can cut the hose — always follow the torque specification for the hose material being clamped.

Yes, worm drive clamps can generally be reused if they are not corroded or deformed. However, for critical pressure applications, replacing clamps when reassembling is recommended best practice.

Standard MOQ is 1,000 pieces per size. Mixed sizes within the same material grade can be combined to reach the MOQ.

A British type hose clamp (also known as a Jubilee clip or BS5315 clamp) is a worm drive hose clamp with a specific band profile and housing design that differs from American SAE J1508 clamps. It is the standard clamp used in automotive and general engineering applications in the UK and many Commonwealth countries.

The British type uses a different screw housing and band profile as specified under BS5315. While functionally similar, the housing shape and band perforation pattern differ. Dimensions and interchangeability should be verified when substituting between types.

Available in mild steel zinc-plated (W1), stainless band with zinc screw (W2), and all stainless steel SS304 (W4). SS316 is available for highly corrosive environments.

Covers clamping ranges from 8 mm to 270 mm through multiple series, matching standard automotive and industrial hose sizes used in British-specification equipment.

Used in automotive cooling systems, fuel lines, air intake hoses, industrial fluid systems, and general-purpose hose connections in UK and Commonwealth markets.

Standard MOQ is 1,000 pieces per size. Mixed sizes within the same material grade can be combined to meet the minimum.

A double bolt double band super hose clamp uses two parallel stainless steel bands and two tightening bolts to distribute clamping force evenly across a wider area. This design is used for large diameter hoses, high-vibration environments, and applications requiring maximum sealing integrity.

Super hose clamps cover from approximately 50 mm to 360 mm (2 inch to 14 inch) diameter range, addressing large hoses and industrial fittings that standard single-band clamps cannot handle.

Available in all stainless steel SS304 or SS316. The double band and bolt construction is fully stainless for corrosion resistance in marine, chemical, and outdoor industrial environments.

Used on large bore industrial hoses, marine engine cooling hoses, HVAC duct connections, mining water hoses, and any application where a standard single-band clamp cannot provide sufficient clamping force or coverage.

Yes, double bolt super clamps can be removed and reused provided the bands and hardware are undamaged. Inspect for corrosion and deformation before reuse in critical applications.

Standard MOQ is 500 pieces per size. Mixed sizes within the same material grade can be combined to reach the MOQ.

A double wire hose clamp uses two stainless steel wire rings (rather than a band) around the hose circumference, held together by a screw mechanism. It provides a lightweight, economical clamping solution for small-diameter hoses in fuel, water, and air line applications.

Available to fit hose outer diameters from approximately 12 mm to 40 mm (1/2 inch to 1.5 inch), covering most small-bore automotive and appliance hose diameters.

Stainless steel SS304 wire and screw mechanism. The all-stainless construction provides corrosion resistance for automotive, marine, and general outdoor applications.

Used in automotive cooling system hoses, fuel lines, small-bore air lines, garden hose connections, appliance water supply lines, and domestic plumbing where a low-profile, lightweight clamp is preferred.

Double wire clamps are lighter, lower-profile, and easier to install in tight spaces. However, they have lower clamping torque than worm drive clamps and are best for lower-pressure applications on soft hoses.

Standard MOQ is 1,000 pieces per size. Mixed sizes within the same specification can be combined to meet the MOQ.

A German type hose clamp (DIN 3017) is a worm drive clamp with a fully perforated stainless steel band, offering more uniform clamping pressure compared to partially perforated American type clamps. It is widely used in automotive, marine, and industrial applications in Europe.

Manufactured to DIN 3017 standard, Sunhose German type hose clamps are fully compatible with OEM automotive specifications and European industrial requirements.

The main difference is the band design: German type (DIN 3017) uses a fully perforated band that provides more even clamping pressure and better sealing on soft hoses. American type (SAE J1508) uses a partially slotted band which is more economical but may concentrate stress.

Available in all stainless steel SS304 (W2), stainless band with zinc-plated screw, and all stainless SS316 (W5) for marine and highly corrosive environments.

Covers clamping ranges from 8 mm to 300 mm through multiple series. Standard width options are 9 mm and 12 mm band widths.

Yes, SS316 all stainless versions are suitable for food processing and pharmaceutical environments. Please specify W5 (SS316) material when ordering for these applications.

Standard MOQ is 1,000 pieces per size. Bulk pricing available — contact our sales team for project quotations.

A heavy duty single bolt hose clamp uses a wide stainless steel band with a single large-diameter bolt for high-torque tightening. The wider band distributes pressure over a larger hose surface area than standard worm drive clamps, making it suitable for thick-wall industrial hoses.

Available in sizes covering hose outer diameters from approximately 40 mm to 200 mm (1.5 inch to 8 inch), addressing medium to large industrial and agricultural hoses.

The single large-format bolt allows significantly higher tightening torque than a standard worm drive clamp — typically 8–20 Nm depending on size — providing superior sealing force on thick-wall rubber and PVC hoses.

Available in stainless steel SS304 and SS316 for corrosion-critical environments, or in galvanized steel for cost-sensitive general industrial applications.

Used for clamping thick-wall rubber suction hoses, discharge hoses, industrial PVC hoses, mining hoses, pump connections, and agricultural irrigation hoses where high sealing force is required.

Standard MOQ is 500 pieces per size. Contact our sales team for pricing on large project quantities.

Sunhose camlock couplings are available in aluminum, stainless steel (SS304 and SS316), brass, and polypropylene (PP). The choice of material depends on the fluid being transferred, pressure requirements, and environmental conditions.

We supply all six standard camlock types: Type A (male adapter with female thread), Type B (female coupler with male thread), Type C (female coupler with hose shank), Type D (female coupler with female thread), Type E (male adapter with hose shank), and Type F (male adapter with male thread).

Working pressure depends on material and size, ranging from 150 PSI for aluminum in larger sizes up to 300 PSI for stainless steel in smaller sizes. Always verify the pressure rating for the specific size and material selected.

Available in sizes from 1/2 inch to 6 inches (DN15 to DN150). Sizes 1 inch to 4 inch are the most commonly used and stocked sizes.

Yes. Sunhose camlock couplings are manufactured to MIL-C-27487 / ISO 16028 dimensional standards, ensuring interchangeability with couplings from other manufacturers worldwide.

Standard gaskets are EPDM (suitable for water and mild chemicals) or NBR (nitrile, suitable for oil and petroleum). Silicone, Viton, and PTFE gaskets are available for specialty chemical applications.

Polypropylene (PP) camlock couplings are used for chemical transfer, irrigation, water supply, and applications where corrosion resistance or lower cost compared to metal couplings is important. They are lightweight and do not rust or corrode in most chemical environments.

PP is resistant to most inorganic acids, alkalis, salts, and many organic chemicals. It is commonly used with fertilizers, pesticides, irrigation chemicals, and mild industrial chemicals. It is not suitable for aromatic hydrocarbons, chlorinated solvents, or concentrated oxidizing acids.

Working pressure is generally rated at 150 PSI (10 bar) for smaller sizes, with larger sizes rated lower. PP couplings have lower pressure ratings than equivalent metal couplings and should not be used in high-pressure systems.

Available in sizes from 3/4 inch to 4 inches (DN20 to DN100). All standard camlock types (A through F) are available.

Yes. PP camlock couplings are dimensionally compatible with MIL-C-27487 / ISO 16028 standards, ensuring interchangeability with aluminum, stainless steel, and brass camlock couplings of the same size.

PP couplings operate between −10°C and +80°C (14°F to 176°F). Above 80°C, PP softens and loses pressure rating — do not use for hot liquids or steam.

Standard MOQ is 100 pieces per type and size. Mixed types within the same size can be combined to meet minimums.
