British Type Hose Clamp
A smooth-band worm drive hose clamp designed for secure industrial hose and pipe connections. Its strong one-piece pressed housing, rolled band edges and smooth inner surface help deliver reliable tightening while reducing the risk of hose surface damage.
Industrial Worm Drive Clamping with a Hose-Friendly Band Design
The British Type Hose Clamp is used to fasten flexible hoses around pipe fittings, connectors and rigid tubes. Tightening the M7 screw draws the band evenly around the connection, helping the hose maintain close contact with the fitting.
Unlike clamps with sharp exposed band edges, this design uses rolled-up edges and a smooth band underside. These details help protect the hose cover during tightening and make the clamp suitable for installations where both holding force and hose protection are important.
DISLAB PRECISION supplies British type hose clamps in galvanized carbon steel, 200- or 300-series stainless steel, and SS316 configurations for different industrial environments.
Key Features of the British Type Hose Clamp
The housing, screw and band are designed to work as a stable fastening assembly for industrial hose connections.
Strong One-Piece Pressed Housing
The formed housing supports the screw mechanism and helps transfer tightening force to the band during installation.
Rolled-Up Band Edges
Rounded band edges reduce direct contact between sharp metal edges and the hose cover, helping protect softer hose materials.
Smooth Band Underside
The inner band surface applies pressure around the hose without exposed perforations cutting into the hose surface.
High Clamping and Breaking Torque
The reinforced worm drive structure is intended for applications requiring firm tightening and a secure mechanical connection.
Stable Force Transfer Around the Hose Connection
When the screw is turned, the housing guides the band through the worm drive mechanism. The band diameter gradually decreases, generating circumferential pressure around the hose and fitting.
- One-piece pressed housing supports stable screw engagement.
- Smooth underside helps distribute pressure around the hose.
- Rolled edges help reduce scratching, cutting and surface indentation.
- Multiple materials support general industrial and corrosion-prone environments.

What Problems Does This Hose Clamp Help Solve?
The clamp is designed to address common fastening problems found in hose-to-fitting and hose-to-pipe connections.
Loose Hose Connections
The worm drive mechanism allows controlled tightening around the fitting, helping reduce unwanted hose movement and connection looseness.
Hose Damage from Sharp Band Edges
Rolled-up edges and a smooth inner surface help prevent the clamp band from cutting or scraping the outer hose layer.
Uneven Pressure Around the Fitting
The continuous band wraps around the hose and helps apply circumferential fastening pressure across the connection area.
Different Operating Environments
W1, W4 and W5 material options allow buyers to select a clamp configuration based on corrosion exposure and project requirements.

British Type Hose Clamp FAQ
Answers to common questions about clamp construction, sizing, materials and industrial use.
What distinguishes a British type hose clamp from a standard perforated hose clamp?
The British type design uses a strong pressed housing, rolled band edges and a smooth band underside. These features help protect the hose surface while maintaining controlled worm drive tightening.
What is the available size range?
The listed standard range starts at 9.5–12 mm and extends to 286–318 mm. Buyers should select the range that includes the outside diameter of the hose after it has been placed over the fitting.
When is the 9.7 mm band used instead of the 11.7 mm band?
The listed sizes from 9.5–12 mm through 22–30 mm use a 9.7 mm wide, 0.8 mm thick band. Sizes beginning at 25–35 mm use an 11.7 mm wide, 0.9 mm thick band.
Which material should be selected for marine or corrosive environments?
W5 SS316 is the listed option for applications requiring higher corrosion resistance. Final material selection should also consider the hose material, fluid, temperature and surrounding environment.
Can DISLAB PRECISION supply sizes outside the standard table?
