98167012 - Arcair Stainless Steel Band-It Clamp for Torch Cable Repair

Secure Your Arcair Equipment with Genuine Replacement Parts

The Arcair 98167012 Stainless Steel Band-It Clamp is an essential component for the maintenance and repair of air carbon-arc gouging torches and their associated cable assemblies. In the demanding world of industrial metal removal and welding, equipment is subjected to extreme heat, mechanical stress, and abrasive environments. Small components like clamps play a critical role in ensuring the longevity and safety of your expensive torch systems. This specific clamp is designed to provide a secure, vibration-resistant hold that keeps protective cable covers and hoses firmly in place.

Manufactured from high-quality stainless steel, this Band-It style clamp offers exceptional resistance to corrosion and oxidation. Unlike standard carbon steel clamps that may rust and fail over time due to exposure to moisture or shop chemicals, the Arcair 98167012 maintains its structural integrity even in harsh conditions. This reliability is crucial for preventing loose cables, which can lead to electrical shorts, gas leaks, or simply the frustration of a disintegrating torch assembly during a critical job.

One of the standout features of the Band-It style design is its low profile. Traditional worm-gear hose clamps often feature bulky housing mechanisms that can snag on workpieces, clothing, or other cables. In contrast, this Arcair clamp creates a smooth, tight loop that minimizes obstructions. This is particularly beneficial for operators who need to maneuver gouging torches into tight spaces or awkward positions. The uniform compression provided by the band ensures that the clamping force is distributed evenly around the hose or cable boot, preventing pinch points or damage to the underlying material.

Whether you are rebuilding a worn-out K4000 torch, repairing a damaged concentric cable, or simply performing routine maintenance on your gouging equipment, using genuine Arcair parts like the 98167012 clamp ensures compatibility and performance. It is the professional's choice for securing the outer jackets of power cables and air hoses, ensuring that your equipment remains safe, organized, and ready for heavy-duty operation.
