T-Bolt Spring Hose Clamps

T-Bolt Spring Hose Clamps represent a superior fastening solution that combines the heavy-duty strength of a T-Bolt clamp with the crucial advantage of constant tension. These clamps are specifically engineered with an integrated spring mechanism, typically utilizing conical washers or a specialized band design, which allows the clamp to automatically adjust its diameter in response to temperature fluctuations and changes in hose material properties.  

This dynamic tensioning capability is vital in applications where hoses are subjected to significant thermal cycling, such as in charge air cooler (CAC) systems, turbocharger connections, and exhaust systems. The spring compensates for expansion and contraction, maintaining a consistent clamping force and preventing leaks that can occur with standard clamps as temperatures change.

Constructed from durable materials, often high-grade stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance, T-Bolt Spring Hose Clamps are built to withstand the harsh environments found in heavy trucks, construction equipment, industrial machinery, and performance automotive applications. They provide a reliable and long-lasting seal, reducing the need for frequent retightening and minimizing the risk of hose or fitting damage.  

Product Details

Features

  • Constant Tension: Integrated spring mechanism automatically adjusts clamping force to compensate for thermal expansion, contraction, and hose set. 
  • Heavy-Duty Securement: Inherits the high strength and robust clamping force of the T-bolt design.
  • Prevents Leaks in Dynamic Conditions: Maintains a reliable seal in applications with significant temperature variations and vibration. 
  • Reduces Risk of Cold Leaks: Effectively counteracts the tendency of some hose materials to relax or "cold flow" over time.
  • Durable Construction: Typically manufactured from high-quality stainless steel and other robust materials for longevity in demanding environments. 
  • Ideal for High-Performance Applications: Essential for turbocharged engines, CAC systems, and other critical connections. 
  • Meets Industry Standards: Many are designed to meet stringent standards like SAE J1508 Type SLF and SLHD, ensuring performance and reliability.

  • Technical Data

  • Material: Commonly Stainless Steel (various grades like 300 series, 304, 316 for band, housing, and bolt), with specialized spring steel for the spring element. 
  • Design Type: Combines a T-bolt and nut mechanism with an integrated spring system (e.g., conical washers, spring band). 
  • Band Width: Typically ranges from 1/2" to 3/4" (12.7mm to 19mm) or wider, depending on the size and intended application.
  • Clamping Diameter Range: Available in a wide range of sizes to fit various hose outer diameters. 
  • Tightening Mechanism: T-shaped bolt and a corresponding nut (often with a nylon insert or other locking feature). 
  • Maximum Recommended Torque: Specified by the manufacturer, often higher than standard clamps but crucial for proper spring function.
  • Operating Temperature Range: Designed to operate effectively across a specified range of temperatures.
  • Standards: May conform to industry standards such as SAE J1508 Type SLF (Standard Light Duty) and SLHD (Standard Heavy Duty). 
  • Spring Mechanism: Details on the type and material of the spring element contributing to constant tension.
