Murray Corporation has over 100 years of experience designing and manufacturing industrial hose clamps and fasteners. Below, we answer the questions our customers ask most often about hose clamp selection, materials, installation, and ordering.
What types of hose clamps does Murray manufacture?
Murray Corporation manufactures a comprehensive range of hose clamps, including T-bolt clamps in standard, spring-loaded, and heavy-duty configurations, worm drive and screw-type clamps in multiple band widths and materials, constant tension clamps with integrated spring mechanisms, pinch and ear clamps in seamless, welded, and mechanical designs, V-band coupling clamps for flanged connections, EXT series exhaust band clamps, band and buckle strapping systems, and bolt and barrel hardware clamps. We also manufacture custom-engineered clamps for applications that require specific dimensions, materials, or performance characteristics.
What materials are your clamps made from?
Most Murray clamps are manufactured from stainless steel for corrosion resistance and durability. Depending on the product line, we offer 300-series stainless steel including 304 and 316 grades, 400-series stainless steel including 430 grade, aluminized steel, and carbon steel with various plating options. Our sales and engineering team can help you select the right material for your application based on the operating environment, fluid compatibility, and performance requirements.
How do I choose the right clamp for my application?
Selecting the correct hose clamp depends on several factors, including the hose or tube material and diameter, the operating pressure and temperature range, exposure to vibration or mechanical stress, the corrosive environment, whether the connection needs to be serviceable or permanent, and the required clamping force. Murray's engineering team is available to review your application requirements and recommend the optimal clamp type, size, and material. Contact us or request a quote to discuss your needs.
Can Murray manufacture custom clamps?
Yes. Murray Corporation regularly designs and manufactures custom clamps to meet specific customer requirements. Our engineering team works with customers to develop solutions for non-standard sizes, specialized materials, unique band configurations, and application-specific performance criteria.
