The Cobra hose clamp is a reliable connector for hose / pipe systems. Delivered open, it is positioned onto the hose connection system and closed using either hand-held pliers or compressed air pliers. The low overall height allows precise assembly even in cramped conditions. With the low profile design and all stainless steel construction, Cobra hose clamps are designed to compensate for changing weather and pressure changes. The central locking position provides improved sealing against unintentional opening and failure of the clamp.
