T-H Marine HC-24 Stainless Steel Hose Clamps, 1 Inch to 2 Inch, Sold in Pairs
The T-H Marine HC-24 is an all stainless steel hose clamp sized to fit hose diameters from 1 inch to 2 inches, making it a practical choice for securing fuel lines, water lines, exhaust hoses, and other plumbing connections on board a boat. The clamp band is made from stainless steel for corrosion resistance in wet and salt-exposed marine environments, while the tightening screw is zinc-plated for added protection against rust. Each unit is sold in pairs, so a single purchase provides two clamps, which is convenient for jobs that require matched clamps on both ends of a hose run or for keeping a spare on hand. The worm-gear style band-and-screw design allows the clamp to be tightened down evenly around the hose for a secure, leak-resistant seal. Because it is built specifically for marine use, the HC-24 is suited to the vibration, moisture, and temperature swings common in boat engine compartments and bilges. Its compact 1 to 2 inch range makes it a good fit for smaller diameter hoses such as fuel lines, bilge pump discharge hoses, and small water lines rather than larger exhaust or intake hoses. Boat owners and marine technicians use clamps like this one during routine hose replacement, engine maintenance, and general plumbing repairs where a dependable, corrosion-resistant fastener is needed.
