Tridon 140-148mm Stainless T-Bolt Hose Clamp with 26mm Solid Band for Marine Use RWB5896

Tridon 140-148mm Stainless T-Bolt Hose Clamp with 26mm Solid Band for Marine Use

This Australian-made Tridon T-bolt hose clamp is sized for a clamping diameter from 140mm to 148mm. The TTBS140-148P model is intended for extra-heavy-duty applications where large tightening forces are required. It uses an all-stainless construction with a solid 26mm-wide band, 1.2mm band thickness and a rolled edge intended to help prevent hose damage. Tightening is provided by a high-tensile 316 grade stainless steel hex-head bolt, sized M10 x 105mm. The specified clamping range refers to the outside diameter around the assembled hose connection, rather than the hose internal diameter. Choosing the correct range matters because this style has a defined adjustment window. Check the actual joint diameter and the space available for the band and bolt before selecting this version for a marine hose installation.

Choosing and using this product

Measure the hose over the fitting at the intended clamp position and confirm that the assembled diameter lies within 140-148mm. Allow room for the 26mm band to sit squarely on the supported hose section, with clearance around the M10 x 105mm bolt for installation and later tightening. Position the clamp according to the hose and fitting instructions, keeping it clear of an unsupported hose end or an unsuitable step in the fitting. The rolled band edge is a construction feature; careful positioning and correct tightening are still required to protect the hose. Use the torque or tightening guidance supplied for the clamp and the connected equipment, as greater tightening force is not automatically better for every hose. Check that the hose material, fitting and complete assembly are suitable for the system pressure, temperature and fluid. After assembly, inspect the joint and test the system as directed by its manufacturer. Include the clamp and hose in regular checks for movement, deterioration and leakage, with access retained to service the connection.
