Ear clamps are designed for use with jaw pincersfor connecting hoses, pipes & fittings in plumbing, manufacturing, food & beverage processing and production applications. Raptor Supplies offers a wide array of Oetiker, Dixon, Oferta Motor Clamps and HCL Fasteners steel, nylon and stainless steel ear hose clamps.
Oetiker clampsfeature a 360-degree design for uniform surface pressure & compression over the workpiece to ensure a tight grip. They further come equipped with built-in interlocks for eliminating clamp loosening upon installation.
Ear style clampsfrom HCL Fasteners are ideal for medical, hydromassage, automotive and agriculture operations.
Dixon ear style clampsoffer a built-in spring action to let the clamp breathe without loosening. These ear clamps are available in a number of pieces ranging from 100 to 5000 units on Raptor Supplies.
These ear clamps offer a wide range of features, making them useful for low-to-high pressure applications, such as mining, agriculture, automobiles, heating & ventilation, food & beverage, dispensing systems, irrigation, chemicals and plumbing operations. These zinc plated / nylon / stainless steel constructed ear style clamps are used with rubber hoses, plastic tubing, electrical cables and welding hoses.

Hose clamps come in diverse shapes, styles & sizes. However, the majority of them follow the same process for proper fitting on a hose and tube / pipe fitting. Once the hose is pressed securely onto the mating part, the hose clamp is positioned toward the end of the hose, with approximately 1/4 inch space between the clamp and the end of the hose.
To tighten a clamp, squeeze the clamp with one hand so that the end opposite the driver slides into the sleeve holding. Then, turn the driver clockwise with a wrench or screwdriver so that the threads present on the driver engage the slots on the clamp. Continue turning the driver until the clamp securely tightens around the hose.
Simply analyse and measure the outside diameter (OD) of the hose installed on fitting. Then, choose a hose clamp in such a way that the outer diameter of the hose is approximately in the middle of the clamping range of the clamp.
Raptor Supplies also offers Oetiker stepless low profile clamps that are reusable in nature. They can be opened and installed multiple times and can be mounted both radially & axially. Oetiker's low profile, universal, screw & profile clamps are also reusable in nature.
Tools like a rotating or bowl nose cutter or side cutter can be used for removing Oetiker clamps. However, rotating cutters are not recommended as they might tamper or damage the hose while cutting the clamp.
Oetiker 2 ear clamps have a larger clamping range as compared to 1 ear clamps. These 2 ear clamps offer high clamping force and create a spring effect during contraction and extension of the hose.
Oetiker offers a wide range of clamps including screw, ear, spring, wire, worm gear and plastic clamps.
Clamps made of stainless steel are corrosion-resistant. So, if you're looking forward to using these clamps in outdoor settings, you should opt for the ones made of stainless steel.
Worm gear clamps use a screw to tighten which may not evenly distribute pressure, whereas ear clamps have a crimping mechanism that provides a more uniform and secure seal.
