For tough jobs where regular clamps just won’t cut it, this HPS 316 Marine Stainless Steel T-Bolt Hose Clamp is built to handle it. Made from 100% marine-grade 316 stainless steel (band, bolt, and nut), it offers way better corrosion resistance than standard 304 clamps – ideal for saltwater environments, marine exhaust systems, or any wet application. Size #44 fits hoses with an inner diameter of 2 inches, with an effective range from 2.25\ to 2.56\ (57–65mm). The band is ¾-inch wide with rolled edges and a floating bridge to protect softer hoses from damage. It can handle up to 75 in-lbs of torque, and for wet exhaust setups, HPS recommends using two clamps per connection for a solid, leak-proof seal. Meets or exceeds SAE J1508 specs. Beyond boats, these clamps are used in water treatment, sanitary systems, food processing, and industrial applications where strength and corrosion resistance matter. If you’re working with silicone hoses, high-pressure lines, or anything exposed to moisture and chemicals, this clamp is a reliable choice. Durable, welded construction, and it just feels heavy-duty in hand.
