The steel band clamp should only be used in one type of application. That being where you are putting two SMOOTH surfaces together, like a garden hose or radiator hose. But with a DC application of a ribbed hose, DO NOT use the steel band clamp, use the wire clamp.

The steel band clamp will only strip and never be fully seated trying to secure the wire rib. The steel banding is not designed to do that task. Whereas, the wire clamp will actually strattle the rib on both sides and create a perfect clamping fit.

I tried to save the twenty cents over the wire clamp, and wound up stripping the clamp thread on about 50% of the applications with the steel band clamps. I antied up and spent the extra cash and got the right product, the wire clamps for the ribbed DC hose.

Don't waste your time with these. I returned 60 of these clamps after using 12 and found them to strip the thread very easily. Buy the wire clamps.

I used both types of band clamps- steel band clamps and wire band clamps- with the ribbed hose in my dust collection system.The steel band clamps slipped more, were harder to control going on and didn't seat as well as the the wire band clamps
