Making your own Hose Clamps for Experimental aircraft

Hose clamps are used in many areas of an Experimental Aircraft project: fuel lines, water hoses, oil hoses, etc. This video show a demonstration of a small tool that allows a builder to fabricate any size hose clamp from stainless steel wire in just minutes. This is also a great emergency tool for repairing/replacing hose clamps in a hurry.

[@johng2233]

Had this tool for 20 yrs and used it many times. The clamps are extremely tight and reliable and using SS wire makes them last forever. There are many homemade variations on this design that you can see here on KZbin. I made one and like it even better.

I have seen other DIY versions of the Clamptite. Whether you buy it or make it yourself, using it is a skill that needs to be learned and practiced. Because the length is limited only by what is practical it can be used on a lot more than hoses. There are times I still want a spiral style hose clamps to do certain tasks, but having this kind of tool sure expands my options, particularly in situations where replacement parts aren't available.

[@katominori9651]

The most professional presentation, with detailed information and examples of use. The device is great for a handyman.

[@823Steve]

About 55 years ago I walked into a welding shop. One of their old timers showed me how to clamp welding hoses with a piece of wire, a vise, and a pair of vise grips. My wire of choice was bailing wire. Since then I've done hundreds of this type clamping on welding equipment, water hoses, air hoses, etc. Never had any failures. It just wasn't possible to do them in place. It looks like this tool would do that if not a real tight place.

[@marcjoseph8300]

Please show us a video of this old way of doing it. Thanks!

[@worldwidestuff5567]

Had mine a long time. Picked it up from her at an aircraft trade show in the 90's, mines a filthy mess now but still works fine. Can firmly attach things together CRAZY tight if needed (not just hoses).. Keep it in the bottom of your tools with a roll of stainless .032 lockwire and you can take on the world.

[@brendoncoss3985]

Very informative video, and I've been wanting to see this hose clamp method for a little while somebody told me that you could do it with wire and they tried show me how it was done but couldn't quite do it but I see now so thanks for showing me how to do it and letting me see your tool, cuz now I have them both in my head and soon they'll be in my hand after I get out to the shop.

I'm an auto mechanic. I hav both the Clamptight & the Haywire Klamper tools. Both are amazing & I use all the time. Although very similar each has its own use, either are better in different situations

May be a problem in confined space...but I like the even compression or clamping force between the hose and fitting.

[@thebidendotwin2926]

What an awesome lady! Thanks for the free education!!

[@fordsucks2]

I think it's a handy tool. I noticed a lot of comments on using it in engine compartments and such...of course it can't be used in tight quarters but it's perfect for air hose repairs, plumbing, hydraulics, irrigation where you can fabricate on the bench or off application. Great Video. 5 Stars.

[@panzerkfw]

This woman is very good. Gave me some tips I was wondering the best way to make my wire clamps nice and neat. This wire clamp system is superior to anything else there is. You can make a 40" clamp or a 1/4" clamp, just pull out enough wire. A 40" clamp could hold together something that is busted and coming apart like a wooden barrel or what have you. As mentioned, if you want to squeeze the guts out of something just use some huge wire. Make sure you use wire from a good source like Aircraft Spruce and Specialty.

[@johnmilner7603]

She did an excellent demo job. I've seen others and they are not as thorough.

[@perrycorn2789]

In the older days I used to make hoses for aircraft and I put the fire sleeve on wrap lock wire around it and twist up tight than put Dow-Corning 736 red sealant over the wire to stop cutting your self and sealing the end to stop fuel oil etc from getting under the fire sleeve but after see this fantastic tool I just wish I knew about it in the 1970s I like it so much I have ordered one and should have it in about 2 weeks If you see and neat tools show us as in Australia you don’t get to know about these tools keep up the videos

[@deankay4434]

I know this is a practice used in aircraft hose fittings, but coming from the automotive repair industry, I like the "Corbin" flat metal spring steel clamp. It covers 360 degrees of the hose and more so, allows for expansion and contraction as perhaps a coolant fitting would experience. The plastic inlets/outlets on today's radiators are subject to failure if high pressure is focused in one location such as the work screw drive clamp creates. I like this practice but as others have pointed out, little to no room in certain locations yet I too would like to see a measure of clamping force. Perhaps a calibrated compression spring with a pointer over a scale between the pulling and pushing points. Just for repeatability. But this would double the tools cost. The advantages of a chart for size and material types would be nice, but this to requires testing. Also, I would use the term "Dressing" the clamp instead of " Scootching". My grandmother sent me "Cattiwampus" from their house to the store to get a soda, so not heard to much in the 21st century., Either way, very interesting and creates a neat and unique look...if others could see it. Nice tool but easily crafted by many crafty builders. I am out on the idea of reusing this wire clamp once stretched. (Sponsored by the stainless steel wire manufacturers) Interesting!

This is great for a quick on the spot fix for a hose clamp. How ever nothing beats a genuine spring hose clamp. They expand with the heat and never let you down. These wire clamps force the hose to constantly strain the rubber under the wire. They will develop a slow seep. Good in a bind but spring type clamp is best for most applications. Nice video.

I've used good screw band clamps and have seen the slots on the band cut right through the rubber when tightened. The good ones don't strip. The nicer ones have a rolled edge anti cutting band protector that also provides full 360 even sealing force. The best things with band clamps is tight spaces. Better than the spring ones. The surface area of a band is much better than wire.

I have a air hose that got cut while dragging it and put some SS screw clamps on it. Those clamps hung up on all kinds of stuff when dragging the hose. When wrapping the hose up you get to have it cutting your hand. Then on the same hose I had to add a clamp next to the connector and it was very uncomfortable holding the tool that I connected there. Saw this tool and looked around the shop and found some things to make one to see if it would work and the wires wouldn't be sticking out hanging up on my hand or objects when dragging. It took a little welding to make it but it worked so far. I used wire I had laying around the shop. So far very happy with it.

[@cabletie69]

Barry Wind wrap some tape around it. No snags or cuts.

[@EyebrowsMahoney]

Get some doublewalled heatshrink and shrink it around the clamps (also useful on these types of fastenings). No more snags and cuts! :) Tape works too, but it degrades over time and gets sticky.

[@toddhayslett8269]

Even better go to a salvage yard and take all the hose clamps off of the vehicles. They will cost you pennies and be what the oem uses. Mercedes clamps are really nice as they are smooth on the inside. I get them for less than 10 cents each

[@bensharp575]

Barry Wind I usually tape over the clamps with a few wraps of slick plastic electrical tape. Solves the problem of catching on things and finger cuts.

How novel! Remember high school shop projects making pullers. This seems easier to make and definitely one tool to have in your box.

[@barrygalbraith1836]

I've had mine for about 10 years and it's used all the time. It takes "only" a few times to get the knack of it. In no time you will find it so handy for so many projects. Not only that but, like you mentioned when there is no clamp around, it works out in a pinch. Note; I call it ( temporarily permanent ). After installed, there's no need to replace it to ( permanent ) because it is. Also noticed you will get a full, all around secure seal for liquid and or air lines. Let me mention "air again" because, you'll always get a leak with the traditional worm gear clamp. Only downfall, it does require some room to move around but, "Everything has a downfall". Great little unit.

[@pops9190]

AAA+++ demonstration. Fantastic tool, the ONLY additional finishing move I would add would be as follows: 4:24 1. Cut the two leads 1/2" +/_ long. 2. Take fine tip needle nose pliers and starting from the end of the wire, roll each of the two wires into a small swirl. 3. Press the swirls flat as you like. Why do this? Well as most of us know that do all sorts of work like this, When you are reaching into areas doing work on various things, you invariably you end up bleeding from your hands and arms from improperly trimmed - non flush cut Zip -Tie ends, and wire ends like this Tool will leave you with, which ALWAYS come from other people's work. Just say no to bleeding and do as I do!

[@bestillandknow3939]

There are times when you cannot find the clamp to fit. Recently for me, not available from any manufacturer/distributor I could find. Things being made difficult to repair to control obsolescence.

[@TheObersalzburg]

Two things for the negative people: 1) As far as not having enough room, you could always remove a same sized clamp from another location that is more open, use it in the tight spot, and wire the fitting that is clear. 2) Using this would let you get to the parts store the next morning or in an emergency. As for the the price, I've pi$$ed away a lot more the $25 for a lot less useful items. If you look for the good, you'll find it, and if you look for the bad, you'll find it, too. I don't have time for the bad.

And the amount of time to take the traditional screw clamp is significantly faster in every bit as effective. So by virtue of efficiency and practicality the old style still stands as number one.

My only problem with it is it wastes more wire than it uses, still probably cheaper per connection than hose clamps, but hose clamps can be undone and reused, I have never regretted buying it, but would I buy it now at 60$ US, doubtfully, but still having it and a coil of wire in your boat,4x4, or what ever could be the difference between coming home on your own or waiting for rescue.

@H Higgins How are you supposed to operate the tool in a tight spot? That 180-degree flip she did with it eliminated the possibility of making this work in many applications. It's probably why the tool has been around 50+ years without becoming common knowledge. I work on car and boat engines where I would NEVER be able to use that in place of a worm-drive or gear-style clamp. Often, I have ONE possible position for the screw on the clamp, and when I get that, my 1/4" ratchet gets an extension and sometimes a universal--sometimes a combination of multiple extensions, etc.--and I often have to work in the blind... ...and that's just doing routine maintenance and repairs. Emergencies? Something this complicated in an emergency? I don't know. Also, after time passes and I find a drip or a trickle, how do I tighten it?

[@chriswitt5325]

Just found this video - and I've had one of the normal Locktites for few years - the dang thing is too useful. My favorite use has been repairing split/cracked handles on my tools (they're even stronger after I add a couple wire ties like this). BUT... I liked mine so much that I got the "mini" model the company sells for working on your car and such - and I've already used it about 4 times for hose work. Never had a space/confinement problem with the mini version, even on my wife's nissan juke (tiny, tiny engine cavity). But yeah - you can't tighten it (though I've yet to find one get loose on me). But who cares? You can just cut off the old wire, take $0.25 in new wire and re-do it. Takes 2 minutes. But the best part about this thing is that I never have to run to the hardware store to get the right clamp or fastener, no matter what I'm doing. I even take the dang thing camping, with a small roll of .041" wire - and the kids use it to build ladders and camp tables and stuff.

I think its an emergency device ...

[@thatbiguy1975]

i sure its a fine tool but i had those thoughts also. was considering how it could damage plastic radiator and soft rubber hose.

Great pitch Kathy 👍

[@artford8674]

I use mine for a lot of things but I would never use it for aircraft. In time the rubber in the hose settles lower and you really need a tighter clamp. In the same sense I usually find benefit in going back and tightening normal screw clamps for the same reason. I'm still glad to have it and use it on many things.

i took one look at this tool and went to my shop. in 30 minutes i had made a very nice one. i do not think it would be useful in many applications.

[@bstevermer9293]

bob f Hahah , I did the same.

[@alfredomarquez9777]

As you are apparently Handy enough, Why don't you put a couple of beveled gears to turn the tool to a parallel to the hose direction?

[@KevinRMoore]

I'm gonna set to work ASAP to make my own tool, this is too fricken cool
