  • Source for Tri-clamp hose bumpers/ donuts/ protectors?

    Does anyone know of a good diy solution or supplier for tri-clamp hose end protection? I'm tired of worrying about myself or others dropping and damaging hose ends.

      We have always just kept a clamp, without a gasket, tightened on the ends of all of our hoses. The clamps get scratched and scraped up on the floor but, at $6 a pop, they are far easier and cheaper to replace than a crimped on hose end or the whole hose itself. We make sure to rotate these clamps out when the hose is used so they get a good soak in cleaner before going back into service. I would hesitate to use any device that would seal up the end of the hose and prevent it from fully draining, such as a cap, unless you are really cranking and all of your hoses are in constant use.

      Cheers,
      Tom

        If you buy any kind of 1.5inch tc barb they come with snap on plastic caps to protect them during packing and shipping. I save them all. Handy for just this sort of thing.

          Brilliant. I can't think of how many of these I have tossed. But we leave all hoses with a gasket and TC on the end anyway -- so the TC portion is pretty protected. As Tom mentions above, the clamps are relatively cheap. I have only had to toss 2, in the last 2.5 years.
