 Excellent Permanent Clamp February 17, 2005
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I recommend these clamps to anyone who needs to permanently clamp their 4" hose to an outlet, adapter, inlet, etc. They form a good tight seal and do not fall off once properly tightened down.
I would not recommend these type clamps for an application where you would be moving the hose to different tools or positions. Reason being, one you would have to get your screw driver or socket wrench out, and two because the wear and tear of the clamp tightening on the hose over and over again would eventually wear a hole in the hose.
Good Clamp for Fixed Hoses July 20, 2004

Good quality clamp. Well made without sharp edges. Threads worked flawlessly. Dual ring securely attaches dust hose to any connection.
However, the bolt head sticks out about 2". This is not a problem on fixed position installations, but it is inconvenient for portable dust hoses. For the rare end connection that will be moved from machine to machine use the standard hose clamps with a low profile blue handle.
Hands Down - The Best Clamp April 16, 2003

I read other reviews before purchasing this clamp and am really glad I did. What I like is that the wires make great contact between the ribs of the hose and screw down very tight. Later I purchased the flat band kind from a local store and agree that this wire type is much better. It's much beefier than I thought it would be. Definitely the best clamp I've come across.
The Best Clamp...The Best Price February 8, 2003

If your hooking up a dust collection system, the proper clamps can make all of the difference. The standard band type clamps are not properly suited to the job. The unique thing about dust collection hoses, is that they are generally made out of smooth, slippery plastic, with a stiff wire running through them for support and/or grounding. This poses a problem for standard band clamps, because the clamp is too wide to get between the wires. Therefore you have a clamp pushing down on the wire. Since the wire is rigid and in a circle, you would have to compress the circle (ain't gonna happen). Therefore a wire clamp such as these, with twin rigid wires is just what the doctor ordered.
I tried everything from duct tape, which gets soft after a while and loses it, to band clamps. When I finally got a set of these, my hoses stay put, and they don't leak. They are easy to install, and you can put a good torque on them, and not have to worry so much about them messing the thread the way a band clamp does. With the Jet 4" wire hose clamp you are dealing with a nut and a threaded bolt instead of a screw and some sheet metal. Definitely a lot stronger with the Jet wire.
The bottom line, when attaching a 10 foot-4" vac hose to a plastic 4" fitting, you can pick up the hose, move it around, and not worry about the hose coming off, the way it does with the band clamps sometimes.
Great unit, great price, get a few extras. Hope this helps.
The Best For Hooking Up Hoses January 21, 2003
I've tried the band type of clamp and they simply do not hold over the long haul. The wire clamps allow you to tighten the clamp down for a firm grip in the fixture. My opinion, the wire clamps are the best thing since sliced bread for hooking up a duct collection system.
