Frequently Asked Questions
How do you undo a Herbie clip?
Place the brand's removal tool at the bottom part of the female jaw. Slide or twist sideways.With this, the clip simply wraps around the hose.The jaws are then squeezed until a strong & secure fit is achieved. How to properly position a hose clamp?
Hose clamps come in diverse shapes, styles & sizes. However, the majority of them follow the same process for proper fitting on a hose and tube / pipe fitting. Once the hose is pressed securely onto the mating part, the hose clamp is positioned toward the end of the hose, with approximately 1/4 inch space between the clamp and the end of the hose.
How to size an ear clamp?
Simply measure the outside diameter (OD) of the hose installed on the fitting. Then, choose a hose clamp in such a way that the outer diameter of the hose is approximately in the middle of the clamping range of the clamp.
Are Herbie clips reusable?
These easy to install and removable clips are reusable. Each clip size covers a range of tubing and bundle diameters, owing to their adjustable nature.
