T-H Marine HC-28 Stainless Steel Hose Clamp, 1-1/4 Inch to 2-1/4 Inch

The T-H Marine HC-28 is an all stainless steel hose clamp sized to fit hose diameters from 1 1/4 inch up to 2 1/4 inch, making it a common choice for securing fuel lines, water lines, exhaust hose, and other plumbing connections aboard a boat. Because the band, screw, and housing are all stainless steel rather than a plated or partial-stainless design, the clamp resists the corrosion that comes from constant exposure to saltwater spray, bilge moisture, and humid engine compartments. This construction also helps the clamp hold consistent tension over time instead of weakening or rusting through at the screw housing, which is typically the first point of failure on lower-grade clamps.

The HC-28 is sold as a single clamp, so it drops in easily when you need to replace one damaged or corroded clamp rather than buying a full box. Its adjustable range covers a wide span of hose sizes, so it works across multiple plumbing runs on the same boat rather than needing a different clamp for every hose diameter. It is suited for use on Chrysler inboard fuel line and fitting applications as well as general marine hose connections within its size range.

Frequently Asked Questions

What hose diameters does the T-H Marine HC-28 fit? The HC-28 is adjustable to fit hose diameters from 1 1/4 inch up to 2 1/4 inch, covering a range of common marine fuel and water line sizes with a single clamp.

Is the HC-28 fully stainless steel or just the band? Every part of the HC-28, including the band, screw, and housing, is stainless steel rather than a plated mild-steel design, which is what allows it to hold up in a marine environment.

How many clamps come in one order? One HC-28 clamp is included per unit, so it is meant for replacing a single clamp rather than servicing an entire boat's plumbing at once.

How much does the HC-28 weigh? The T-H Marine HC-28 weighs 0.3 pounds.

Will the HC-28 rust or corrode in saltwater use? Because the HC-28 is made entirely of stainless steel, it resists the corrosion and rust that plated or partial-stainless clamps develop when exposed to saltwater spray and bilge moisture.

What applications is the HC-28 used for? The HC-28 is used to secure fuel lines and fittings, including Chrysler inboard fuel line and fitting connections, along with other hose runs that fall within its 1 1/4 inch to 2 1/4 inch clamping range.

Does the HC-28 include a worm-drive screw mechanism? Yes, the HC-28 hose clamp uses a screw-adjustable stainless steel band and housing to tighten down around the hose.

Is the HC-28 a good replacement for a corroded or rusted clamp? Yes, since it is sold individually, the HC-28 is well suited to swapping out one worn or rusted clamp on a fuel or water line without buying a multi-pack.

What is the UPC for the T-H Marine HC-28? The UPC for the T-H Marine HC-28 stainless steel hose clamp is 733572012804.

Can the HC-28 be used on exhaust hose connections? The HC-28 clamp's 1 1/4 inch to 2 1/4 inch range makes it suitable for hose connections that fall within that diameter, which includes many marine exhaust, water, and fuel line applications.
