Every welder knows the frustration of hearing that faint hiss coming from a gas line. Not only does it waste expensive Argon or CO2, but it can also introduce porosity into your welds by sucking in atmosphere. The ESAB 98W43 2-Ear Hose Clamp is the professional's choice for fixing those leaks and securing new hose connections with confidence. Forget about using zip ties that become brittle or worm-gear clamps that are bulky and can cut into your hose; these ear clamps are designed specifically for the demands of welding equipment.
These clamps are the industry standard for a reason. The "double ear" design allows the clamp to maintain a tight grip even as your hose expands and contracts with heat and pressure. Once you crimp them down, they stay put. They provide a permanent, vibration-resistant seal that won't back off over time, giving you peace of mind whether you are running a MIG gun, a TIG torch, or an oxy-fuel cutting setup. Their compact size means they won't get hung up on the edge of your welding table or tangle with your power cables.
This 2-pack is perfect for keeping in your toolbox for those unexpected repairs. Whether you are splicing a damaged section of hose or fitting a new regulator, these clamps ensure a professional-grade connection. They are compatible with standard welding hose materials and are tough enough to handle the rigors of daily shop use. The zinc plating protects against rust, so your connections remain secure and clean-looking for the life of the hose.
Installation is simple and fast. Slide the clamp over the hose and fitting, then use a pair of end-nippers or clamp pincers to squeeze the ears closed. You'll feel the clamp tighten uniformly around the hose, creating an airtight seal instantly. Don't let a loose connection ruin your weld or drain your tank—keep a pack of ESAB 2-Ear Hose Clamps on hand and weld with confidence.
