PYI, Inc.
The Clamp Jacket from PYI, Inc. is a device that is designed to slide over the tail end of a hose clamp. This provides a safe working environment anywhere a hose clamp is installed, which results in less employee downtime by preventing injury in the first place. Made of EPDM rubber, the Clamp Jacket is very durable and holds up well when exposed to grease and oils. Clamp Jackets come in ½” and 5/16” and can withstand temperatures of up to 300 degrees Fahrenheit (steam up to 400 degrees). Clamp Jackets are ribbed on the inside to provide a tighter grip onto the hose clamp and have an extended tail to help align the Clamp Jacket in order to easily slip over the hose clamp tail.
