Oetiker's extensive range of innovative industrial clamps and rings offer an array of flexible engineering solutions, available now from TFC.
Oetiker's experience and expertise in engineering quality connecting products has produced a range of clamps and rings with pioneering and unique features such as the Stepless Ear Clamp, which is used for applications in the automotive, rail, aerospace and mining industries among others.
Unlike most forms of clamp that do not encompass the entire circumference of the hose, the ingenious Stepless design has no steps or gaps on the inner circumference of the clamp.
This provides uniform compression and a 360-degree seal.
The Ear Clamp with Dimple is another original Oetiker concept.
Once the clamp is installed, the ear creates a spring effect when the hose material expands or contracts in response to thermal or mechanical influences such as temperature or vibration.
This spring effect gives the Ear Clamp extra longevity in the toughest conditions.
All Oetiker clamps and rings use special smooth edged band steel for less risk of damage to hosing and have excellent corrosion resistance.
"At TFC we pride ourselves on supplying customers with the most innovative and versatile products available", commented Brian Goode, TFC's Marketing and Technical Director.
"Both Oetiker swing couplings and Oetiker clamps and rings meet the exacting high standards of quality and innovation that we demand of all of our products".
"I am confident that this partnership will enhance the reputation of both our companies and look forward to the opportunities that this will yield".
