Stainless steel clamp 9 8-12 mm – code: 18.023.01 – Osculati

The stainless steel clamp Osculati code 18.023.01 is a practical solution for tightening pipes and sleeves in nautical and plant engineering contexts. Made of AISI 316 stainless steel, is designed to provide an orderly and reliable fastening in normal installation and maintenance activities on board.

This version is identified by 9 mm band and tightening range 8–12 mm. The construction with stamped teeth and the presence of a 316 stainless steel screw with anti-seize treatment (zinc plating) make the clamp suitable for interventions where a stable tightening and easier screw handling during assembly and disassembly are desired.

Features and construction details

Material: stainless steel AISI 316

The clamp is made of AISI 316 stainless steel, a material commonly chosen in marine applications and exposed environments, where stainless steel components are preferred for onboard hardware and plant engineering.

Stamped teeth

The band features stamped teeth, a processing indicated by the manufacturer for greater strength of the clamp. This characteristic helps maintain an effective grip during tightening, with a functional coupling between screw and band.

316 stainless steel screw with anti-seize treatment

The clamp includes a 316 stainless steel screw with anti-seize treatment by galvanization. In practice, this is a useful detail when a smoother screw operation and easier handling during adjustment are desired, especially in periodic maintenance contexts.

Dimensions and product identification

• Band: 9 mm
• Clamping range (min–max): 8–12 mm
• DIN standard: 3017
• Supplier product code: 18.023.01
• Supplier: Osculati S.r.l.

For correct selection, always check that the outer diameter of the pipe/sleeve falls within the range 8–12 mm and that the 9 mm band is consistent with the available space and the intended application.

Typical applications (nautical and plant engineering)

This clamp is suitable for tightening flexible or connected components where mechanical fastening via band and screw is required. In nautical and plant engineering contexts, it can be used, for example, for:

• fastening of tubes and sleeves on fittings;
• interventions of maintenance and replacement on onboard lines and connections;
• installations where hardware in AISI 316 stainless steel.

The choice of the correct clamp depends on the actual diameter of the component to be clamped and the type of connection. If the pipe is near the minimum or maximum limit of the range, it is good practice to evaluate the overall clamping setup and screw accessibility.

Operational advantages

• Material stainless steel AISI 316: suitable for contexts where stainless steel hardware is desired.
• Stamped teeth: construction solution indicated for greater band strength.
• Stainless steel 316 screw with anti-seize: designed to facilitate tightening and adjustment operations.
• Compact size: 9 mm band and 8–12 mm range for applications on small diameters.
• Clear reference: Osculati code 18.023.01 for reordering and spare parts management.

Usage and installation notes

Size selection

Before assembly, measure the outer diameter of the pipe or sleeve already positioned on the fitting. The clamp must operate within its range 8–12 mm to allow correct adjustment.

Placement

Position the clamp so that the band rests evenly on the pipe/sleeve, avoiding folds or misalignments. Ensure that the screw is accessible for any subsequent checks.

Tightening and checks

Tighten gradually until a stable fastening is achieved, without forcing beyond what is necessary. After the first commissioning or after a short period of use, a visual check of the tightening can be useful, especially in applications subject to vibrations or temperature variations.

Maintenance

In nautical contexts, periodic maintenance of the hardware is good practice: check the condition of the band and screw and, if necessary, restore the tightening. The treatment anti-seize treatment The screw is a useful detail to maintain maneuverability over time.

Product summary

The stainless steel clamp 9 mm 8–12 mm Osculati 18.023.01 is a clamp in AISI 316 with stamped teeth and 316 stainless steel screw with anti-seize treatment (galvanization), compliant with DIN 3017. A consistent choice for installations and maintenance in the nautical and plant engineering fields where a stainless steel clamp with compact dimensions is required.
