20402132 - Arcair SG1343 Replacement 2-Inch Cable Hose Clamp

Keep Your Gouging Torch Running Smoothly

When you are deep in a gouging job, removing pounds of metal an hour, the last thing you need is your equipment falling apart in your hands. The Tweco Arcair SG1343 2-Inch Hose Clamp is a small but vital piece of hardware that keeps your Arcair gouging torch assembly together. Designed specifically for the thick, heavy-duty concentric cables used in air carbon-arc gouging, this clamp ensures that your cable jacket stays put and your connections remain tight. A loose cable isn't just an annoyance; it can lead to air leaks that kill your air pressure, making it harder to blow away molten metal cleanly.

This isn't just a standard hose clamp you grab from the plumbing aisle. It is an OEM part from Tweco/Arcair, meaning it is built to the exact specs needed for your torch. It fits perfectly around the 2-inch diameter sections of your cable assembly, providing a secure grip that withstands the dragging, pulling, and twisting that happens during a long shift. The durable metal construction fights off rust and holds up against the heat and grime of the welding shop. Whether you are repairing a damaged line or building up a new torch assembly, using the right clamp ensures you get the longevity and performance you expect from your Arcair tools.

Installation is straightforward, allowing you to get back to work quickly. Simply slide the clamp into position and tighten it down to secure the hose or cable cover. Regular maintenance of your torch and cable assembly—including checking for loose clamps—is the best way to prevent downtime. Don't let a two-dollar problem turn into a thousand-dollar failure. Keep a few SG1343 clamps in your toolbox so you are always ready to fix a connection and keep the sparks flying in the right direction.
