What size hose clamps? I bought 1/4" clamps but they are too big.

I actually screwed down 1/2" hose clamps on my Craftsman lawn tractor and they work fine for me.

You do not say what kind of clamps you bought but quarter inch should be too small, not too big. I use good quality cable ties and cinch them up snugly, but I am not sure if they are legal in your state for gas hose. With cable ties size is no longer an issue. Why not snip off a piece and take it to your local automotive store to ensure a clamp of the right size if you can not use ties. Good luck and be careful with gasoline.

I am not sure what type clamps you bought - for the mower on which I used the hose, no clamps were needed due to the fittings being barbed. For other applications I buy the screw type clamps that cover a range - the size is normally the O.D. of the tubing.

the quarter inch size is for ID. 5/16 should be the outside diameter. if you bought quarter inch and it is too big, perhaps you got hosed !

5/16" . If you use 3/8" you may want a hose clamp. It is NOT 1/4" between the pump and manifold. You use 1/4" beyond the manifold.

As I recall there are two sizes. I use the large size for Ø35 mm ID hose. I would guess that the small pair of pliers would work just fine for 1/4" of Ø6mm hose as you describe.

Will check when I get home. I do know I used some heavy duty metal hose clamps, that you tighten with a socket, not screwdriver.

Hello Yale. The lock fits any standard hose bibb that has a 3/4" valve outlet diameter. I believe that 3/4" is the standard but I know they also make 1/2" outlets also. I have not been able to locate any 1/2" hose bibb locks for you but a company called Webstone Valves make a 1/2" hose bibb with a locking handle. I wish I could have been more helpful. Good luck.

These are made to fit 1-3/4" diameter header pipes, thanks again.Customer ServiceBkrider

Indeed 3/4" OD thread seems to be bigger than the replacement hose. But you could get a reduction (that's a brass piece with i.e. 3/4" outside thread at one end and a nipple wide enough to fit the replacement hose on the other). Those are available at the hardware store; and if it's a good hardware store the people there can help you out to get really what you need. Good luck; I hope this helps! :-)

any size hose should fit, just use any standard couplers ( from any local hardware store) will fit with most 1/4", 3/8" or 1/2" hose at any length

Yes, you might have to get a bigger clamp. They use your standard hose clamp. The u bolt it used for 1" dia tube. Like a snowmobile handle bar.

The threads are for a garden hose (sorry, don't know diameter but it's pretty close to 3/4" pipe with different threads). Mine's connected to a camper trailer water line, but worked fine on a regular water hose while I figured out the best location. There are pipe thread to water hose adapters available.

These were specifically made for a 7/8 inch bar diameter. That's not to say you can't make them fit but it will look wrong. It will be up to you to decide whether or not it bothers you but techincally, yes, they can be made to fit. It also may require you replacing the hardware that comes with the kit with longer hardware since the one inch diameter bar you will be mounting them to will effectively spread the clamp further apart.

I'd bring it to a hardware store and find something that will fit the threads. They're a strange size though, so good luck.

Sorry, the U-clamp is in my boat and I'm not planning to go there on this week. You gonna get two different sizes which fit everywhere. I'm using the smaller U-clamp which is approximately 25-30 mm (1-1 1/5").

What are the hose diamentions? 1 1/4 or 1 1/2? My old filter has the smaller hose, so I would like to know what these are?

Hi Bradford, I measured my 6 clamps. They range from 12 3/8" to 12 1/2" wide open. Each orange plastic protector is 1/8" thick, so you could get an additional 1/4" by removing them (the bottom one slides off easily, but one on the screw is really on there!).

The clamps fit perfectly on 1.5" PVC. I don't think there is adequate space indide the u-bolt used for the clamp.

A few wraps of tape around the male end of the adapter and it should fit a 1-1/4" hose. (Poor design for an item that's being sold in US, i.e., metric sizing instead of imperial.)
