    Install hose and tube clamps with these specially designed pliers.
    For Pinch Hose Clamps—Pinch clamp pliers crimp pinch clamps closed on hose and tube.
    For Spring Hose Clamps—Spring clamp pliers install and remove spring-tension hose clamps.
    For Spring Band Hose Clamps—Spring band clamp pliers have jaws specially designed to grip spring band clamps which are often found on heater and radiator hose.
    Straight Jaw—Those with straight jaws must be used perpendicular to the hose.
    Straight-and-Side Jaw— Pliers with straight and side jaws are good for tight spaces because you can use them parallel or perpendicular to your hose.
    Center Handle—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.
    35° Head Angle—Pliers with a 35° head angle are good for low-clearance spaces.
    Flat Jaw— Pliers with flat jaws have a cross-cut tip design to grip most hose clamps from multiple angles.
    24" Flexible Cable— Pliers with a flexible cable allow access to hose and tube clamps that are difficult to reach.
    Cushion Grip—Cushion grip pliers have plastic grips for comfort.
    Ultra Grip—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.
    Adjustable Tip—Pliers with adjustable tips accommodate different sized flat-band hose clamps.

    Create a leak-tight seal between polyethylene (PEX) tubing and press-socket fittings for drinking water—no heat or solder necessary. The ratchet action lets you apply the right amount of pressure for a complete crimp. To ensure you’re using the correctly sized crimper, they are color coded to match the compatible fittings. These crimpers are compatible with Viega PEX tubing and Viega PureFlow Press fittings.
