So thats how its done. #tools #diy #construction #mechanic #repair #shorts

What happens here

Once the desired tension is achieved, rotate the ClampTite tool 180 degrees. This action locks the tension in place, creating the primary secure point of the clamp. Remove the tool from the clamp. Using diagonal cutters, trim the excess wire, leaving approximately a quarter of an inch protruding. Finally, press these short wire ends down against the clamp using the pliers to permanently secure them. This creates a finished, low-profile, and permanent hose clamp.

Goal: Lock the tension, remove the tool, and trim the excess wire, then secure the ends to finalize the clamp.

What they say

Hide

you're in business. Tighten it up. No twisting, you're push pulling. When you're tight, you'll feel it. Go with the flow, you'll feel the tension in the tool. You're going to get nice and flush on your hose, okay? When you're finished, flip that over 180° to lock you in. Back that off. About a quarter of an inch is all you need. Once you press those down, locks you in permanently. That's your brand new hose clamp.
