Description
2" Double Bolt Hose Clamp
2" Double Bolt Hose Clamp provides a heavy-duty clamping solution for compatible 2" hose assemblies.
Dixon lists two 2" hose-ID configurations in this clamp family: SL72 for 56–72 mm hose OD and SL76 for 60–76 mm hose OD. Both use malleable iron construction with a two-piece design and loose saddles.
Product Highlights
Dixon two-bolt hose clamp designed for compatible 2" hose assemblies requiring a heavy-duty mechanical clamp.
Two 2" options cover 56–72 mm or 60–76 mm hose OD with malleable iron construction and loose saddles.
Technical Specifications
2" Hose Clamp Configuration
The SL72 is designed for 2" hose with an outside diameter ranging from 56 mm through 72 mm.
The SL76 is designed for 2" hose with an outside diameter ranging from 60 mm through 76 mm.
Double Bolt Hose Clamp Design
Dixon lists both SL72 and SL76 for 2" hose ID, allowing the clamp to be selected according to the actual hose outside diameter. SL72 covers 56–72 mm OD, while SL76 covers 60–76 mm OD.
Because the OD ranges overlap, selection should be based on the measured outside diameter and the appropriate fit for the specific hose assembly rather than hose ID alone.
Both 2" clamp options are manufactured from malleable iron. This construction provides a durable clamp body for compatible industrial hose assemblies.
Inspect both clamp halves, bolts, and saddle components before installation. Damaged, deformed, or excessively worn components should not be placed into service.
Dixon describes these clamps as a two-part design with loose saddles. The clamp halves surround the hose while the bolt-and-saddle arrangement provides the mechanical clamping action.
Keep all clamp components correctly positioned during installation so clamping force is applied evenly around the hose assembly.
Accurate hose outside diameter is an important selection point for this clamp family. A nominal 2" hose can have different outside diameters depending on hose construction and reinforcement.
Measure the actual hose OD before choosing between SL72 and SL76. Confirm that the measured diameter falls within the published range for the selected clamp.
Installation & Selection Considerations
Confirm the 2" hose ID.
Measure the actual hose OD.
Select SL72 or SL76.
Inspect bolts and saddles.
Verify proper clamp fit.
Our product specialists can help review hose ID, measured hose OD, SL72 or SL76 selection, clamp fit, and compatible hose assembly requirements before you order.
Frequently Asked Questions
What hose size are these clamps designed for?
Dixon lists both SL72 and SL76 for 2" hose ID.
What hose OD range does the SL72 fit?
The SL72 is specified for hose outside diameters from 56 mm through 72 mm.
What hose OD range does the SL76 fit?
The SL76 is specified for hose outside diameters from 60 mm through 76 mm.
What material are the clamps made from?
Dixon specifies malleable iron construction for both 2" configurations.
Why are there two 2" clamp options?
Hoses with the same nominal 2" ID can have different outside diameters, so Dixon provides overlapping OD ranges to accommodate different hose constructions.
What should be measured before ordering?
Measure the actual hose outside diameter and confirm that it falls within the published range of the selected SL72 or SL76 clamp.
