ABSTRACT:
The adjustable band clamp includes a single, elongated, narrow width band of metal having at one end thereof a plurality of cut-out windows. A crimpible, protruding band region is disposed immediately inboard the plurality of windows. Preferably, the crimpible protruding band region is a raised, U-shaped region having a central depression on its raised platform portion. At the other end of the band and disposed at predetermined longitudinal intervals over the substantial length of the band, a plurality of groups of protruding ears or extending notch fingers rise above the outer surface of the band. In operation, one or more ears from a simple group of longitudinally spaced apart ear sets are locked into the cut-out window. Since the operator can select a single group of ears close to the end of the band or a group in the mid-region or a group near the crimpible band region (the most inboard band region), a single band clamp can be used for large diameter boots, hoses, and plastic piping or small diameter boots, hoses or plastic piping.
