Metallics HMC6SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What diameter range does the Metallics HMC6SS hose clamp adjust to?
The HMC6SS adjusts over a 7/16 to 7/8 inch range, so it covers small-diameter hose, tube, and flexible conduit within that band. If your outside diameter falls below 7/16 or above 7/8 inch, you need a different size clamp in the series.
2) Is the Metallics HMC6SS stainless steel, and is it suitable for damp or outdoor locations?
It's an 18-8 stainless clamp, which is the austenitic 300-series grade used where corrosion resistance matters. That makes it a reasonable choice for wet, damp, and exterior work where a plated carbon steel clamp would rust at the band and screw.
3) Can I use a Metallics HMC6SS hose clamp to secure small flexible conduit or tubing on an electrical job?
Yes. The HMC6SS is an electrical-hardware hose clamp sized 7/16 to 7/8 inch, commonly used by electricians and maintenance crews to band small flexible conduit, sleeving, or hose to a fitting or stub. It wraps and tightens with a worm screw rather than bolting to a surface, so it is not a substitute for a one-hole or two-hole conduit strap when you need to anchor a run to structure.
4) I'm standardizing clamps across a facility. Will one HMC6SS cover both 1/2 inch and 3/4 inch hose?
Within its 7/16 to 7/8 inch adjustment, one HMC6SS can take in either, provided you are measuring the actual outside diameter of the hose or tube over which the band closes. Nominal hose size and OD are not the same number, so measure the OD at the fitting before you standardize a bin on this one size.
5) What is the exact part number to order the Metallics 7/16 to 7/8 stainless hose clamp?
Order it as Metallics HMC6SS. That single part number covers the 7/16 to 7/8 inch 18-8 stainless clamp, with no finish or size options to specify.
