Those will be crappy stainless steel which is magnetic, and will rust.

i highly rate these i have them on my car and on my home watering system hydro reservoir where they are submerged 24-7 for years and zero rust and can be tightened and reused,no holes for rubber to squeeze through like the cheap chinky copies which is mostly on amazon by looks of it.

IPD sells many sizes of the Swedish ABA clamps.

ABA and Norma ( merged) are both fine screw type clamps. The stuff in big box stores are bad metal and poorly made/function.

So they're German-Swedish?

There's a thread aggregating Oetiker and other clamp info. Feel free to post good info there.

I bought some Breeze "stainless" clamps for low importance applications like evap lines. I use ABA or Norma Torro for important stuff (but always fail to make them tight enough). I may switch to more Oetikers, especially for the pesky power steering tank hoses which are always leaking on me.

Try cutting off the https:// part, I think that's what I did before. Dunno why it happens.

I also think if you make it a link (using the button above the post creation text box) it will work.

ABA clamp motto is “ take a chance on me”

Hi,

You can post the name of the product and the id number and state that it is on Amazon like this:
Amazon
STEELSOFT-Assortment-Stronger-Fasteners-Stainless
B08Y6LSL3R

That last line is the ASIN number for that product which makes it easy to find, and you can then use the MVS link to Amazon.
