Clamps can be divided into several types according to structural and material differences

2021-11-12

1. American Clamps (including heavy-duty and small American clamps)
Core Advantages:
High-strength fastening: Heavy-duty clamps use wide steel bands and high-strength screws, suitable for high-pressure, high-torque scenarios (such as industrial pipelines and marine power systems).
Large adjustment range: The worm gear mechanism precisely controls the tightening force, compatible with a certain range of pipe diameter errors.
Application Scenarios:
Industrial field: Chemical equipment pipelines, oil pipelines, mining machinery hydraulic systems.
Transportation field: Automotive engine cooling pipes, ship water supply and drainage pipelines, truck exhaust pipes.
Construction field: Fire protection pipelines, central air conditioning chilled water pipes.
2. Rubber Clamps (Hose Clamps)
Core Advantages:
Elastic sealing: Rubber material can buffer vibration, compensate for minor displacement of pipes, suitable for flexible pipe (such as rubber hose) connections.
Anti-wear: Rubber lining avoids direct friction between metal and pipe, protecting thin-walled or plastic pipes.
Application Scenarios:
Household scenarios: Kitchen sink drain pipes, washing machine inlet pipes, gas hose connections.
Mechanical field: Small water pump hoses, air purifier ducts, laboratory instrument pipelines.
3. Stainless Steel Clamps (Heavy-duty/Light-duty)
Core Advantages:
Excellent corrosion resistance: 304/316 stainless steel material is suitable for humid, salt spray, and acid-base environments (such as marine engineering and food processing).
High temperature and high pressure resistance: Heavy-duty stainless steel clamps can withstand high-temperature steam (such as heating pipes) or high-pressure liquids (such as high-pressure cleaning equipment).
Application Scenarios:
Food and medicine: Beverage production line pipelines, sterile pipelines for pharmaceutical equipment.
Marine engineering: Ship seawater pipelines, offshore platform oil pipelines.
Energy field: Steam pipelines in thermal power plants, solar water heater pipelines.
4. Spring Clamps (Automatic Clamps)
Core Advantages:
Automatic tension compensation: The spring mechanism automatically adjusts the clamping force with the thermal expansion and contraction of the pipe, avoiding excessive squeezing or loosening.
Tool-free installation: Some spring clamps can be installed directly by hand pressure, suitable for narrow spaces or emergency repairs.
Application Scenarios:
Automotive industry: Engine intake pipes, fuel pipes (need to adapt to high temperature and vibration).
Heating system: Underfloor heating pipe connections, radiator hose fixing.
5. Grooved Clamps (Rigid/Flexible)
Core Advantages:
Quick connection: Through the grooves at both ends of the pipe and the rubber sealing ring of the clamp, quick installation is achieved, reducing the amount of on-site welding work.
Shock absorption and noise reduction: Flexible grooved clamps have built-in rubber pads, which can absorb pipe vibration and noise, suitable for building water supply and drainage systems.
Application Scenarios:
Construction projects: High-rise building fire protection pipelines, drainage risers, air conditioning water systems.
Municipal engineering: Urban water supply pipelines, sewage treatment plant pipeline networks.
