Metallics HMC40SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What diameter range does the Metallics HMC40SS hose clamp adjust to?
The HMC40SS adjusts over a 2-1/16 inch to 3 inch range, so it will clamp anything whose outside diameter falls inside that band. If the OD you are clamping is under 2-1/16 inches the band will not cinch down far enough, and over 3 inches it will not close.
2) Which trade size of rigid conduit will a 2-1/16 to 3 inch clamp fit around?
Work from outside diameter, not trade size. A 2 inch rigid steel conduit runs about 2-3/8 inches OD and a 2-1/2 inch runs about 2-7/8 inches, so both land inside the 2-1/16 to 3 inch adjustment band of the HMC40SS. A 3 inch trade size is larger than 3 inches OD and needs a bigger clamp.
3) Is the HMC40SS clamp stainless steel, and can it be used outdoors or in a damp location?
It is an 18-8 stainless clamp, which is the austenitic 300 series grade commonly specified for general corrosion resistance. That makes it suitable for damp, outdoor, and washdown locations where a plated carbon steel band would rust.
4) Can a hose clamp like the Metallics HMC40SS be used to strap conduit or pipe to a post?
Yes, and that is a common field use for a worm drive stainless band. The HMC40SS wraps and tightens on anything from 2-1/16 to 3 inches OD, so electricians use it to lash conduit, raceway, or a sensor housing to a pole or rail without drilling. For permanent support on structure, a one hole or two hole conduit strap sized to the raceway is the proper fastener.
5) How many Metallics HMC40SS clamps does the order ship as?
The HMC40SS is a single clamp model, one part number with no size or finish options to choose. Order the quantity you need for the run; there is no variation to specify beyond the model itself.
