Buying Guide: Hose Clamps and Wire Connectors
Hose Clamps
Ideal Tridon hose clamps include T-bolt clamps with a tongue bridge, turn key clamps, snaplock clamps and micro-gear clamps. The tongue bridge T-bolt models are suited to high vibration and large diameter applications such as off-road equipment and industrial machinery. Match the SAE size or the diameter range on your old clamp before ordering.
Wire Connectors and Terminals
Insulated wire connectors come in orange, yellow, red and gray, including twist-on models, push-in connectors and assorted packs. The PowerPlug terminal disconnect and the Greenie grounding connector cover specific electrical points. Choose a connector by the wires you need to join, follow the manufacturer's instructions, and have a qualified electrician handle the work.
Splicing and Stripping Tools
Crimp-On Splice Cap Insulators are nylon caps used with crimp connectors to insulate pressure-type connections. Ideal Tridon also offers a Reflex T-Stripper for removing insulation from wire. Check the manufacturer's instructions for each product before use.
