Stainless Steel Constant Torque Clamp 5/8" Band, Hose I.D. - 1-1/4" to 2", Hose O.D. - 1.75" to 2.625"
Virtually all rubber hose compresses (cold flow) after installation of clamping device, resulting in an almost immediate torque loss that can exceed 80% of installation torque. Similarly, virtually all metal connections expand as a system heats up, and then contracts as the system cools. Conventional worm gear, T-bolt, and other clamps are passive, in that expansion or contraction of components cannot be compensated for with out re-tightening or loosening the clamps. This clamping system is an “active” clamping mechanism, which monitors and then compensates for the changes by actually changing diameter through a unique worm gear Belleville assembly.

Construction:
The Trident Marine Stainless Steel Constant Torque Clamp is designed for IT environments requiring secure hose and cable connections where thermal expansion, contraction, or hose compression (cold flow) might compromise traditional clamping systems. This active clamping mechanism utilizes a unique worm gear Belleville assembly to automatically adjust its diameter, compensating for changes in component size. This feature helps maintain consistent clamping force without the need for manual re-tightening or loosening. It is suitable for hose inner diameters ranging from 1-1/4" to 2" and outer diameters from 1.75" to 2.625". Constructed from 304 and 401 stainless steel, this clamp offers durability for demanding applications. The part number 730-1120 addresses the challenge of maintaining connection integrity in systems subject to temperature fluctuations or material compression, reducing the risk of leaks or disconnections.
The constant torque feature addresses issues like hose compression (cold flow) and thermal expansion/contraction of connections. It actively adjusts the clamp's diameter to maintain consistent clamping force, preventing torque loss without manual intervention.
The band and housing are made from 304 Stainless Steel with a 5/8" wide band. The Belleville Spring Washers and screw are constructed from 401 Stainless Steel.
For smaller I.D. sizes up to part number 730-3000, the recommended maximum torque is 30 to 70 in.-lbs. For larger I.D. sizes above 730-3000, it is 50 to 120 in.-lbs.
