About Measuring Hose and Tube Clamps
What's the best way to determine the clamp size you'll need? Simply measure the outside diameter of your hose with the fitting installed. Some clamps accommodate a range of sizes, so be sure the size you need falls in the middle of that range.

Hose and Tube Clamp Pliers
Install hose and tube clamps with these specially designed pliers.
Pinch clamp pliers crimp pinch clamps closed on hose and tube. Those with straight jaws must be used perpendicular to the hose. Pliers with straight and side jaws are good for tight spaces because you can use them parallel or perpendicular to your hose. Pliers with a center handle reduce the fully open grip span. They also have a higher closing force than other pliers, so they require less strength to crimp pinch clamps closed.
Cushion grip pliers have plastic grips for comfort. Ultra grip pliers have a grip made of hard and soft materials for comfort and slip resistance. They are shaped to fit comfortably in your hand and reduce strain from repetitive tasks.

Hose-Crimping Pliers
As you squeeze the handles, the vise-like jaws lock tightly onto the ferrule to secure barbed fittings onto your hose. To select the correct pliers, measure the hose OD and select the next larger size "For Hose OD" below.
