It looks like you can order online and has pricing..I might have a gander and see if theres nominated stockists in NSW.

The problem is that I just need to try sizes first. 10 clamps will cost $30. If I get it wrong $60.

I use them on My fuel lines but bought them many years ago..
they also made normal types of hose clamps..
from stainless steel... also small fuel line ones with the band painted blue...

someone should have them...

they have the size stamped on them like 12-18mm

which I presume is the outside diameter of the hose..

They only have crimp type.

Bursons or Repco stock the Norma clamps, the crimp clamps work better on the standard fuel hose.

Yes the crimp type work great but they are hard to remove on a WBX motor. 4 hours to remove a water hose clamp. Ended up using a dremel to grind it off. If you are away from home it would be near impossible to replace a hose.

Thanks for the information but Repco don't sell them.

Yes Lee I've bought these for $32.70 for 10 delivered.

ABA Clamps

The 13mm ones fit the water hoses perfect.

I use thumb screw clamps, less than $2 from memory. At Bunnings in the garden watering section. Thumbs are colour coded for different sized clamps but you can swap the thumbs around to get the colour you want.

I find it very re-assuring to be able to reach in and check my fuel lines by hand any time I have the deck lid open, rather than waiting for the times I remember to do it while I happen to be holding a screwdriver.

Regards,

Matt.

excellent Matt..

I sometimes forget to retighten the hose clamps..??

and as You say, need a screwdriver in Your hand and need to be able to access the screw in the clamp..

Have never seen those type before..

cheers
