Position clamps so the band fully covers the hose bead or fitting barb. Tighten to the fitting manufacturer's specification — do not overtighten, which can cut the hose. Inspect clamps annually for corrosion, loosening, or hose deterioration and replace as needed. Never substitute non-marine (zinc-plated) clamps on marine applications — they corrode rapidly in the marine environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eABA's all-stainless construction makes the ABA-13638 the right clamp for any marine hose connection where reliability and corrosion resistance are required.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WEST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43564086984740,"sku":"ABA-13638","price":9.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/5799\/7604\/files\/ABA-13638.jpg?v=1776378782","url":"https:\/\/marisolmarine.com\/products\/aba-16-stainless-steel-hose-clamp-1-1-16-1-1-2-aba-13638","provider":"Marisol Marine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
