Warranty and
Safety
Important advice and warning to user, Read before applying clamps:
The Center Punch type clamp’s lock and cut-off is achieved using considerable impact. This may cause
damage to the object being clamped.
Remember that a tighter clamp keeps the fitting more secure, but excess tension could damage the hose or
fitting. Fitting stem must have prominent barbs for proper retention inside the hose, but barbs must not be
sharp to prevent cutting into the hose. Hose, fitting and clamps must be compatible with each other and the
intended working environment. If in doubt, consult the hose or fitting manufacturer or call BAND-IT.
Clamping objects other than hose require similar precautions.
CAUTION: Improperly tightened clamps may result in dangerous hose assemblies, which could cause
injuries or property damage.
CAUTION: Abuse or use of hose outside the manufacturer’s recommended conditions may cause it to
quickly deteriorate and become a safety hazard. This could result in serious injury or property damage.
Inspect and test hose assemblies frequently.
Repair or replace at the slightest sign of damage or
deterioration.
