Frequently Asked Questions:

Q.What is the difference between ratchet pinchers and standard jaw pincers?

A. Ratchet pinchers are angled at 90 degrees to the ear clamps with its jaws clamping both sides of the ferrule, compressing the hose against the barbed portion of the hose fittings for a secure fit. On the other hand, Oetiker side or narrow (standard) jaw pincers serve as the right fit for applications having limited operating space.

Q. Are other variants of Oetiker 14100396 jaw pincer available on Raptor Supplies?

A. Yes, Raptor Supplies also offers jaw pincers in a variant having side jaws ( Oetiker 14100446 pincer) that act perpendicularly to the ear clamp for use in applications where the radial area is very limited.

Q. What are the points to consider for operating Oetiker 14100396 jaw pincer?

A. Oetiker 14100396 straight jaw pincers do not provide the same closure force each time due to its inherent applied force variability. The actual pincer force depends on various factors, such as applied hand force, local worker safety limits and specific application properties. It is possible to exceed the maximum closure force of a particular ear clamp. However, it must ensure worker safety and the final connection integrity of that ear clamp.

Q. What are the types of clamps that Oetikar offers?

A. Oetiker offers a wide range of hose clamps, such as screw, ear, spring, wire, worm and plastic clamps.

Q. How do users remove Oetiker clamps?

A. Customers can use tools, such as a side or bowl nose cutter, to remove the interlock & peel back the clamps from hoses. It is not recommended to use rotating cutters as they can cause damage to the hose while cutting the clamp.

Q. Can Oetiker clamps be reused after removal?

A. Selected Oetiker clamps, such as low profile, universal & screw clamps, can be reused after removing them from hoses. However, ear clamps can't be reused once cut & removed.
