High Pressure Clamps: Clamps for Steam Couplings

High Pressure Safety clamps (HPC’s) are used for steam applications. Steam is a hazardous medium to be transferred due to extreme pressures and temperature. HPC’s, however, are not only robust but it is also possible to reuse them. Modern hoses vary greatly in composition, diameter and thickness. Many sizes are available to suit hoses of various outside diameters, and each clamp is clearly marked with the hose outside diameter range and part number. It is important to match the correct size clamp to your hose.  

The principal feature is the extended protrusion, otherwise known as a boss or a finger. This is designed to engage behind the annular security collar of either the male or female coupling. The clamps are interlocking and under-ribbed to provide a secure grip on the hose. HP Series Clamps incorporate a ‘bolt shelf’ for one-handed spanner tightening.
