Mikalor hose clamps

Postby paulwatkins » Sun 03.08.2008, 17:07

I'm going to replace some of my Jubilee clips for Mikalor clamps.

CLICK HERE FOR DETAILS

They offer a discount for larger quantities.

Is anyone else interested in getting some?

If you are, just list what you want and I'll add them to my order. I'm in no rush so could postpone ordering for a while to gauge what interest - if any- there is.

Very interested in the all stainless - I also want some better exhaust clamps for the Peco and they look a lot more substantial than the ones I'd found.

Be careful if you're going to replace spring clips though - they're designed to maintain a constant pressure to allow for expansion and contraction of the hose, something that Jubilee and Marman clamps don't do.

been scouring the internet today to find someplace in the US to buy Mikalor clamps in less than quantities of 50 - seems every outlet is in the UK or Australia. I found one outlet that sells individual clamps in the states - mscdirect.com

Stagonset are the cheapest I've found in the UK, but I'm still waiting for a couple of other companies to quote and I've asked Paul if he has a price from Power Engineering - I'm after some 59-63mm W4s - which I need because I bent my exhaust clamp (but extremely fortunately nothing else) on a 'king big rock lying in the middle of the road. :evil:

PS So my Mikalor clamps are made in Spain and sell for $5.45 in the US and £6.99 in the UK. :censored:

I took the plunge and threw away the rusty exhaust clamps for some W4s (fully stainless). I bought 3 x Mikalor Supra W4 59-63mm for £24 incl. VAT + P&P and I'm impressed.
