CLT05 - Clamptite - 4 3/4" Plated Steel/Aluminum Tool w/ Wingnut

Way better than hose clamp. Takes a little bit to get the hang of it, but when you do you want to tie everything with it.

So I got the cheaper one with the wing nut vs the big T handle bc I wanted a more compact size tool. It can seem a little awkward at first till you get used to the actual mechanics of it and how the clamps are supposed to be made. I have used it on a variety of items that need clamps and it works well. Just remember that too tight will literally cut the hose in half! The single loop clamps is the fastest to do but It also is the one that can be over tightened the easiest. I prefer the double loop and with proper practice you can get them done pretty quickly. This is my 2nd one of these and it came with a plastic wire nut, I don't really know why it has it or what it's use is. I got the full size one also and it's handier than a shirt pocket but too big in some instances so I got this one to try out, now it's my favorite tool.

Works as expected.Had to reorder it due to the original was missing from the package. (**May have been lost in transit and not the shippers fault**)But this one arrived in timely manner and it was exactly Iike they described it.

This product is a life saver if you don't have any worm clamps handy. And for less than 20 dollars it is well worth the money and the space it takes up in your toolbox. It's about the size of a pencil. It takes a few trys for practice. After that learning curve it works fantastic.

Make a clamp of any size, just use wire. There are plenty of videos online on how to use this item. It does come complete with written instructions.

I aw the videos and it works exactly as described but there seems to be very little practical use for it in the tight spaces in an engine bay. For lawn and garden or some plumbing and maybe fuel or vacuum lines it would work well. But, for general automotive it just requires more room to use than is ever available.

Didn't know how soon I'd use it. Two weeks later, I needed it. It worked exactly as described first try. Wish I had this as a kid. Custom clamps!!! They look factory made when done. Every man should own one. Like the shotgun, air compressor, motorcycle, and the lantern.... something every man should have and love.

I love love love this thing. I bought it specifically to repair a broken air hose. I run pneumatic framing nailers all day for my job and recently busted a hose for the second time in 2 years. I had just bought that hise and was so upset about it. I tried a few repair kits that used double sided barbs with tapered compression sleeves but they would not hold under pressure and I was forced to use 2 hose clamps to secure the repair. Now this makes it a pain to roll the hose up and it also catches on everything, including your person and clothing.One day I was watching something on youtube and there was a video on the sidebar of this thing. IT was clickbaity but the image was just irresistibly intriguing to me. Boy am I glad I watched that video. I came and ordered this immediately. The hose repair is almost good as new. No snagging on anything and you can pull it through your hand with no sharp edges slicing at you like a piece of crap hose clamp.Now this will not work in tight spaces because you have to lever the device about 180 degrees to finish the clamping process. But if you have the room to use it, it is a thousand times better than a hose clamp. I actually look for excuses to use it because it makes me so happy. A little pricey for what it is and how simple it is to make with machinery. But still well worth it because it will last a lifetime.
