Trident Marine 316 SS Non-Perforated Worm Gear Hose Clamp - 15/32" Band - (1-3/4" – 2-1/4") Clamping Range - 10-Pack - SAE Size 28

The Trident Marine 316 Stainless Steel Non-Perforated Worm Gear Hose Clamp in SAE Size 28 (1-3/4" – 2-1/4" clamping range) is a marine-grade fastening solution engineered for applications where corrosion resistance and secure, damage-free clamping are non-negotiable. This 10-pack features premium AISI 316 stainless steel construction—the gold standard for saltwater environments, offshore operations, and high-reliability fluid system connections where standard carbon steel clamps fail prematurely.

The defining characteristic of this hose clamp design is the non-perforated, smooth inner band (15/32" width, 11.7mm). Unlike perforated clamps that concentrate pressure at discrete contact points and damage hose walls, the smooth non-perforated construction distributes clamping force evenly across the hose surface. This eliminates scoring, pinching, and potential failure points—critical for maintaining system integrity on vessels, fuel systems, and pressurized fluid lines. The one-piece 16mm (0.63") wide housing provides high tensile strength and compact geometry, while rolled edges further protect against hose deformation during installation and operation.

This clamp is specified for marine plumbing, cooling systems, fuel distribution, bilge pump installations, and any saltwater or corrosive-environment application where 316 stainless steel hose clamps are required by code or best practice. The SAE Size 28 designation places it in the mid-range band, suitable for 1-3/4" to 2-1/4" hose diameters commonly found in through-hulls, engine cooling loops, and auxiliary system installations. Ten-pack format reduces per-unit cost for fleet maintenance, boat repair facilities, and operators maintaining multiple systems.

Marine-grade worm gear clamps in 316 stainless represent the highest standard for saltwater fastening. While standard hose clamps corrode and fail within months in marine environments, 316 stainless maintains integrity across decades of exposure to salt spray, moisture, and UV. Trident Marine specializes in marine-certified hardware, and this clamp aligns with the brand's focus on long-service-life components for vessels and offshore equipment.
