Configurations and Features: |
The Kwik-Tach clamp collar allows for re-tightening after initial hose pressurization.
8", 10" and 12" shanks and collar segments are fabricated from cast aluminum Alloy A356, heat-treated to T6 temper.
4" thru 6" shanks and collar segments are machined from 6061-T6 aluminum seamless extrusions.
Shanks and collars are hardcoat anodized to MIL-A-8625 Type III, Class 1.
Shanks have undulating diameters to provide for secure and leak proof hose attachment. Collar segment diameters are sized to match mating shank diameters and hose thickness.
Collar segments are drilled and tapped on one end with a corresponding clearance hole on the opposite end.
Outside collar diameters sized to provide added abrasion resistance for the hose and radiused to reduce hang-ups when dragging.
