Double Wire Hose Clips with Butterfly Handle

A Yellow Zinc-Plated Double Wire Hose clips with Thumb Handle is a user-friendly, light-duty adjustable clamp that combines the simple wire band design with a convenient, tool-free thumb-operated screw. Its distinctive yellow chromate coating provides enhanced corrosion protection and a visual identifier over standard zinc plating.

Features of double wire hose clips

Material & Finish:

Band: Formed from two parallel, galvanized low-carbon steel wires. The yellow zinc plating (a clear or iridescent yellow chromate conversion coating over zinc) is applied to the steel, offering improved corrosion resistance and a more decorative finish compared to plain zinc plating.

Housing/Saddle: A stamped steel housing, finished to match.

Thumb Handle/Screw: The defining feature is a large, molded plastic or coated metal thumb screw (a.k.a. wing screw or finger screw) that replaces a standard slotted screw head. This allows for hand tightening and loosening without tools.

Working Principle:

It operates on the same basic double-wire worm drive principle: turning the thumb screw engages its threads with the space between the two parallel wires, pulling the band tight.

The thumb handle provides greater leverage and a comfortable grip for manual operation.

Advantages of double wire hose clips

Tool-Free Operation: The primary benefit. Allows for quick installation, adjustment, and removal by hand, ideal for applications requiring frequent maintenance, inspection, or access.

User Convenience: Easy to use in tight spaces or where tools are not readily available.

Enhanced Corrosion Protection: The yellow zinc plating offers better resistance to white rust (zinc oxide) and provides a more durable finish in moderately humid or indoor environments than standard zinc plating.

Cost-Effective & Lightweight: Remains an economical solution for light-duty tasks.

Typical Applications:

Its use is strictly limited to non-critical, easily accessible, hand-tightened connections:

Consumer Appliances: Securing drain hoses on washing machines or dishwashers for easy user service.

HVAC & Ventilation: Access panels on air handlers, flexible dryer vent ducting (for easy cleaning access).

General Purpose/DIY: Securing dust collection hoses in workshops, temporary connections on jigs or fixtures, closing bags or covers in industrial settings.

Low-Pressure Air & Vacuum Lines: Where a positive seal is not critical.
