Stainless Hose Clamps FYI Posted by Larry West [Email] (#1140) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Larry West) on Sat, 18 Apr 2009 15:41:14 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
FYI: West Marine (large retail recreational boating chain) sells 316 Stainless versions of the AWAB/ABA hose clamps that Saab uses on their cars. I just installed one to replace the one I had to cut out from where the air inlet tube connects to the air filter box on my 2002 Arc.
They're more expensive (although they might be on par with full retail at a Saab dealer...), but they'll never seize due to rust. Same 7mm hex head, same hose-friendly thread design, but in STAINLESS!
