Oetiker Stepless - Model PG 168 - Low Profile Clamp - Brochure

Stepless Low Profile Clamps are produced in several nominal widths and thicknesses. The dimensions of the material used for the standard range are determined taking into account the required radial force, the nature of the application and the need to maintain sealing and/or retaining properties under the specified conditions and environmental exposure. When selecting the clamp diameter, the dimensions of the mating components on which the clamp is to be installed must be accurately established to enable effective clamping performance. The durometer hardness of the soft material and the desired compression are important factors when calculating the appropriate clamp diameter.
