Abstract
A hose clamp kit having a coil of perforated band material marked at regular intervals to enable detaching of a desired length of band, and a housing assembly with a worm drive near one end of a housing plate which has near the opposite end one or more protrusions and a detent. One end of the length of band is held in place by the detent, while the perforations engage or snap onto the protrusions. The other end encircles a hose, engaging the worm-gear housing for tightening. A protrusion may be rounded, may be formed by pushing up the plate material residing between two slots in the plate, and/or may be sized for an interference fit into a perforation. The detent may be a raised tab, bent horizontal to the plate and in the direction of the protrusions. A hose clamp and a method of clamping are also described.
