Collection: Clamps / V-Bands

Clamps, specifically V-band clamps, are commonly used in the automotive industry for various applications, including exhaust systems, turbocharger connections, & intake systems. V-band clamps consist of a circular band with a V-shaped groove & a mating flange. They are designed to provide a secure & leak-free connection between two components. The V-band clamp is installed by aligning the mating flanges & placing the circular band around them. The clamp is then tightened using a fastener, typically a nut or a bolt, which pulls the band together & creates a tight seal. V-band clamps offer several advantages, such as ease of installation, quick disassembly, & the ability to create a strong & reliable connection even under high temperatures & pressures. They are commonly used in high-performance & aftermarket applications due to their superior sealing capabilities & the ability to accommodate thermal expansion & contraction. V-band clamps are available in various sizes & materials to suit different applications & can be an essential component for ensuring proper fitment, performance, & durability in automotive systems.
