Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What is the difference between a V-band and a Marman clamp?
A. The primary distinction between Marman clamps and V-bands lies in their construction. Marman clamps consist of rigid, machined V segments pressed circumferentially against the flanges by an external band. Also, V-bands are crafted from a single pressed or rolled piece and do not require an additional external band for securing.
Q. What maintenance is required for Clampco 99506-0525 V band clamp?
A. Maintenance involves regular inspection for signs of wear or corrosion and ensuring this clamp is tightened to the correct specifications. If the clamp is used in highly corrosive environments it may require more frequent inspection.
