Description
2-3/4" Double Bolt Hose Clamp
2-3/4" Double Bolt Hose Clamp provides a heavy-duty clamping solution for compatible industrial hose assemblies.
The Dixon DL275 is designed for hose outside diameters from 2-1/2" through 2-3/4". It features plated iron construction, dual gripping ridges, reinforced bolt lugs, and a published torque value of 40 ft. lbs.
Product Highlights
Dixon DL275 double bolt clamp designed for compatible hose with a 2-1/2" to 2-3/4" outside diameter.
Plated iron construction combines dual gripping ridges with reinforced bolt lugs for secure clamping.
Technical Specifications
Hose OD & Clamp Configuration
The DL275 is sized for hose with an outside diameter from 2-1/2" through 2-3/4". Measure the actual hose OD before selecting and installing the clamp.
The clamp uses a two-bolt design with dual internal gripping ridges and reinforced bolt lugs to support secure mechanical clamping around compatible hose.
Double Bolt Hose Clamp Design
Dixon specifies the DL275 for hose outside diameters from 2-1/2" through 2-3/4". Clamp selection should therefore be based on the actual measured hose OD rather than nominal hose size alone.
Measure the hose at the installation point before ordering. The selected hose should fall within Dixon's published diameter range for the DL275 clamp.
The DL275 is manufactured from plated iron for durable service in compatible industrial hose assemblies. The clamp body should be inspected before installation for damage, deformation, or excessive wear.
Both clamp halves and fastening components should remain properly aligned during assembly. Damaged or distorted components should be replaced rather than placed into service.
Dixon incorporates dual gripping ridges on the inner surface of the clamp to improve mechanical engagement with the hose. Reinforced bolt lugs are designed to resist bending out of alignment during tightening.
Position the clamp evenly around the hose before tightening. Proper alignment helps distribute clamping force around the assembly and supports consistent installation.
Dixon publishes a torque value of 40 ft. lbs. for the DL275 and specifies that clamp torque values are based on dry bolts. Bolt lubrication can adversely affect clamp performance.
Do not apply lubricant to the bolts when using the published torque specification. Dixon also recommends consultation when double bolt clamps are used on helical wire hose.
Installation & Selection Considerations
Measure the actual hose OD.
Confirm the DL275 range.
Keep clamp halves aligned.
Use dry bolts for torque.
Inspect the completed assembly.
Our product specialists can help review measured hose OD, DL275 compatibility, clamp range, torque requirements, hose construction, and installation requirements before you order.
Frequently Asked Questions
What hose OD range does the DL275 fit?
Dixon specifies the DL275 for hose outside diameters from 2-1/2" through 2-3/4" (63.5–69.9 mm).
What material is the DL275 made from?
The DL275 uses plated iron construction.
What torque does Dixon specify for the DL275?
Dixon specifies 40 ft. lbs. of torque for the DL275.
Should the clamp bolts be lubricated?
No. Dixon states that the published torque values are based on dry bolts and that lubricant can adversely affect clamp performance.
What is special about the inside of the clamp?
The inner surface incorporates dual gripping ridges designed to improve mechanical engagement with the hose.
Can this clamp be used on helical wire hose?
Dixon advises consulting them when double bolt clamps are used on helical wire hose.
Important Ordering & Installation Notes
- Confirm Dixon part number DL275.
- Measure the actual hose OD.
- Verify the 2-1/2" minimum OD.
- Verify the 2-3/4" maximum OD.
- Inspect the clamp before installation.
- Use a 40 ft. lbs. torque value.
- Torque values assume dry bolts.
- Do not lubricate clamp bolts.
- Keep bolt lugs properly aligned.
- Consult Dixon for helical wire hose.
