- Make your own Hose Clamps for garden hoses, radiator hoses to hammer handles. Hose clamps have many uses: fuel lines, water hoses, oil hoses, hammer handles, etc. This video shows a demonstration of a small tool that allows a builder to fabricate any size hose clamp from a wire in just minutes. This is also a great emergency tool for repairing/replacing hose clamps in a hurry.

Easiest tool to build by far. Thanks so much for this video.
Simple is better! Thanks for watching!
I've been looking into these clamps but I've not seen anyone make the tool - Thanks so much!
IMO one of the best clamps there is. Thanks for watching!
Absolutely the best description on how to make wire hose clamps. Thanks a lot!
I know what a clamptite tool is and I saw a video of one made with a cheap drawbar but I can recognise the simplicity and durability of this tool you are showing. Most of us have material on hand to make one. After watching this vid. it's going on my to do list. 👍
Brother, thank you, this is so informative and straightforward, the way you speak and patience. Thank for sharing your experiences with us all. This is my now go to for all my hose clamps.
Thanks, You will really like that tool. Never had one leak. I had a hose spring a leak. used 1/2" cpcv pipe as a coupler it never leaked.
There must be 1000 of these hose clamp videos on youtube. This is by far the best.
Thank You!!!
I've seen many different types of wire hose clamp tools and the one you made is far more simpler and easier to make. I will be making a few here at work.
Cool, thanks
Dear Russ, thanks for sharing. Elegant solution to an age old problem. Cheers buddy.
You bet
I’ve been doing this for years and have never had one fail. I have the haywire, but I like the one you made here.
It only takes few minutes to make one and does require a lot of tools to do it. Thanks for watching!
Saw this yesterday and built one. Took about an hour, including the jig, and cost $0 (I had some scrap laying around). Works great! Thank you
Excellent! They some of the best clamps in my opinion. Thanks for watching!
A good german made stainless steel hose clamp is half a dollar.
Best homemade tool I've seen so far. Thanks for the great idea.
Glad you like it!
@@RussWilson I've seen a lot of these tools but this is the design I'm building. The other are clunky and awkward. Your design get the job done no nonsense. I like the idea of pre-building clamps on a safety pin type clip. Kudos all around.
Awesome design! I have also hated screw-based hose clamps since I was a teenager (45 years ago), so I will be making up some tools soon.
You will be wishing you found this before. Thanks for watching!!
Quite easily the most useful trick that I have seen on RUclips. Awesome. Thank you very much.
Great DIY tool! Thanks for sharing. RUclips algo suggested a video of a cool, vintage Wedgon tool that does much the same thing. It's fancy, but I appreciate the open source ethos of your approach.
Cool, thanks!
A very good design. This excels where it's easy on the hand to get the "winding" of the wire strength. Other designs may be more compact when working around tight engine spaces but yet harder on the hand to tighten wire. I think i would like multiple styles of this tool for different jobs. Excellent video with excellent tips and tricks.
Thanks for the tutorial, I'm going to make mine! Trying to do exactly like yours ! God bless 🙌!
You’re welcome 😊 It is worth the few minutes to make the tool!! Thanks for watching!!!
This is the best demonstration I've seen on DIY clamp making. I especially appreciate the time spent showing us how to do it neatly! Thank you, Sir. Now I'm off to the basement gizmo-tweaking desk.......
Glad it was helpful! I use the wire hose clamp all the time. Thanks for watching!!!
Thanks for showing us how to make that tool…it is going to come in very handy!
You are welcome! I love these clamps they are super strong! Thanks for watching!
I've been clamping hoses like thgis since I was a teenager in Puerto Rico in the 70s.
Works really well!!
I've been looking for one of the old fashioned tools for this. I didn't know how simple it was to make. Thanks!
Glad I could help!
Thanks for this very interesting video. Top job Mate 👍 . Cheers from Michael.. Australia.
I’m going to make one of those today, tired of handling large awkward sharp hose ends. Thanks!! Sometimes a zip tie or 2 works for low pressure
"Cut towards your buddy not your body"
You saved me a trip to the hardware store when trying to finish my pickup thank ya.
Cut towards your chum , not your thumb 👍🍻🇨🇦
Great. They have the clamp tite tool that works great. Also, dont overlook single ear clamps/pinch clamps. I think those are my favorite
The single ear clamps are great!
Muy buena idea, gracias y saludos desde México.
Thank you very much. Those clamps that you tighten with a screw driver are dangerous and useless. Your clamp is perfect and you did a great job showing us how to make
and use it.
Thanks for watching!! I really like the clamps we are making now.
I've been looking for a cheap and quick way to secure the connections on my drip irrigation system. I believe this will work perfectly. Thank you so much!
Glad I could help
Thank you, never heard of this technique before, but I like it.
You’re welcome 😊
Simple tool, excellent idea.
Thank You! Don't get any simpler than this.
Yup, those hose clamps catch on everything. Thanks
Yes they do. I've been cut on them before. Thanks for watching!!
I like your jig for preparing the wires. How do you use the yellow bits you have lying around?
Thank you for posting this!
Great Idea! Thank you for sharing.
Like it so easy and easy way.
Sure is easy!!
It's amaizing tool...thank you for share!
It sure is! The only clamp we use now!
Nice job. For garden hose I've had good luck with 3/4 inch copper pex crimps.
Great presentation thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching
Thanks for the interesting and useful footage. Excellent idea.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!!
GREAT JOB BRO !!!! I must put one together!!
Thxs 😬
You should!
Excellent idea and tool
Glad you like it!
I made the tool today gonna try it tomorrow
Thanks for you help, right now I need one, enjoy the rest of the day from Mexico State of Hidalgo near Actopan
Thanks, you too!
Very very helpful Russ! Thanks!!
Great information on native grasses!!
Very helpful. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
very good. Thanks
What a cool fix for a very common problem. My husband has cut his fingers on the regular hose clamps and it is like a paper cut only more painful. We will try it.
Kathy meley
Fantastic info- thank you!
Clever fix. I never have the right size hose clamp, and you're right they're an accident waiting to happen. I'm going to try this.
Hey, Connie haven't heard from you in a while help all is ok.
Nice version! Wondering what could be done tool-wise, to reduce the amount of excess wire wastage?
Good question!
@@RussWilson here's the ticket... more efficient wire usage and technology ruclips.net/video/xJdib5Vv0Dk/видео.html
Thank You! I'm going to build one.
I redisgns the tool in the video you posted. If you send me an email. I'll send you some pictures. ancattle@gmail.com
I have a working model a lot like that one you sent the link to but it is so much better. Will be doing a video on it soon.
This is the most elegant version of this tool that I've looked at and I've seen quite a few that all start to look like a Rube Goldberg device compared to the simplicity of this one. Thanks for that
i dont mean to be offtopic but does anyone know of a method to get back into an Instagram account?
I was stupid forgot my password. I would love any tips you can offer me
@Randall Wesson instablaster :)
@Ishaan Ayden thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and im in the hacking process now.
I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Ishaan Ayden It worked and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much you really help me out :D
@Randall Wesson No problem :)
OK new sub, sorry I didn't comment when I watched 1st time, must be about ¾ maybe 1 hrs, I made one, tested it ✔✔✔ found it a home in my portable toolkit. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Thanks for the sub! This tool is easy and very effective. Thanks for watching!
Nice job
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice n simple n really works!
Dip your rusty crusty tools in vinegar and dish soap after 30 mins. Brush of with steel brush. Video was very well done. Thanks
I had a friend that found an old double-bit axe head in the dirt, with her metal detector. It sat on a table in their porch for years. Last summer I asked if I could clean it up/restore it for her. It was caked & pitted with rust. She said I could. I let it sit in vinegar for 2 weeks, wire brushed it, light coat of WD40, & it looked really decent! Enough that I could read the brand stamped into it & value it at about $65. White vinegar is a Boss for cleaning things up!
Besides of Vaseline, Brylcream,’ A little dab’ll do ya” , also works to.😅
I had to look up Brylcream. It looks like it would work well.
Cool video, good clamps. Not only are those pissy screw clamps dangerous & hang up on everything then leak too...they are expensive & the screw rusts away badly particularly at the coast, then once again they are useless. They also damage hoses when tightened up
I made a similar tool a few years back and have used it for mending quite a few garden hoses (dogs get bored and chew the hoses) utilizing 1/2" CPVC pipe cut for connectors... I also tend to cut a couple of grooves in the connector since I have a mini-lathe, but it works without that also... I'm using 18-gauge galvanized steel electric fence wire... I've used it for air lines up to 175 psi, but have never had the need to try it any higher... The only problem that I've had is when using it for small air lines (e.g. less than 1/4")... It's just a bit too bulky for those small lines and the line ends up twisting on me instead of tightening... For 3/8" air lines, it works great though...
I've sliced my hands quite a few times over the years with those damn screw clamps... I hate them...
That is a great diy set up, especially for garden hoses. Not sure about the wire. Can it be bought from hardware store? Is it galvanized. Very simple tools needed, no expensive fittings. Thanks for video.
Harbor Freight has it.
Simple. I like the clamp making fixture. That's way nicer than spending time looking like an uncoordinated fool trying to straighten out the clamp wound on the hose. Thanks!
Nice I like this especially since it is made out of scraps that don’t cost anything
They inexpensive and better than hose clamps!
I can see it being used for splints. Excellent idea.
Absolutely!
Excellent and simple designs great job I like the Simplicity of this tool when work in very tight places but still a great design for its application that you're using for good video an explanation excellent job! One Note: the winder could be a bolt with two holes drilled in it and you could use a quarter inch ratchet to tighten the bolt to be fastened with eclipse through the body of the tool once the where is been fed through you should bend them 90 degrees and clip the excess where off I thought that was a not safe while working.
Go to sign over all
Thank You!! I really like the idea of a bolt with a couple holes in to use a ratchet to tighten. I have two other wire clamp tools. I'm going to make videos on those this winter!!
Thanks
Welcome
Loved the wooden jig for bending the wire. I made mine from 1in lengths from a 1 in broom handle. I wouldn't ever throw away a hardwood broom handle, would you? Works perfectly for garden hose.
Best video I’ve seen in a long long time I’m headed out to the shop to make those tools I got a roller mechanics wire that’s just waiting to be used as clamps! Have you tried this on an air hose will they hold 150 pounds or 200 pounds? I bet it will❤️🇺🇸
I haven’t tried airline. But have fixed hydraulic lines with those clamps. Not recommended though could get hurt if the line blows apart.
@@RussWilson I think I would stick with pre-made hydraulic hoses but it's impressive that that will hold together under those pressures. And then a serious need to fix something situation it would be worth knowing. Spending four hours getting a real hydraulic hose when you need to get a machine out of Harm's Way is not good.
@@davej7458 Pre-made hydraulic hoses are the way to. But on a Sunday afternoon blow a line on the baler and rain is coming. It works in a pinch.
My wire keeps breaking. I'm using 25lb 18 guage galvanized steel wire. Is that too weak for this application?
Hose with Vaseline for the win
Thanks for watching!!
Perfect !!!
Thank You!
Dear sir,thank you for this unique idea,I was literally using the readymade hose clamps from the store and many times it was not successful,but today I m happy to learn a new technique of making the wire hose,once again thank you,
Also, I request you,if you can make another video on how to make a wooden vice for holding & gripping pipes like things.i would remain thankful.
thanks for watching!
cool idea! Thanks :)
Glad you like it!
Good one
Thanks!!
Great idea. I don’t like those screw clamps either. Often times the clamp holes will break through when tightening with screwdriver
They are the only clamps we use. Thanks for Watching!!
awesome, Ingenesis
Great information as usual, I been missing your videos.
Looks like your wire clamps work fine. The cheap garden hoses don't last and usually aren't as flexible as a rubber hose. I have commercial rubber hoses that are 35 years old. Some still have original ends. If the ends get damaged it's usually because someone drove over it. The dangerous part with gear clamps is using a flat screwdriver to tighten the clamp while you hold the hose with your other hand. One slip and there's your stitches. Use a nut driver or socket to tighten gear clamps. You can tighten down harder and be safe.
Any suggestions on garden hoses? Our ends usually fail because of the thin brass that errods from our spring water. I agree it hurts really bad when you stuck a screwdriver into your hand.
I made your clamp jig. I had some 16ga and 17ga electric fencing wire (easy to bend). Neither wire was the Keystone brand that you were using. Although my wire was easy to bend... I couldn’t get the stuff to hold a tight bend...it was too springy. Any suggestions?!!
Only suggestion I have is to try a different wire. A wire that work well is the on the flags the utilities use to mark lines.
You are the rustyman with all rusty things!
Yes his tools could do with some oil:-))))))))))))
Great fix. Seems I never have a clamp on hand when I need one.
I second that! l almost never find a clamp when I need one.
The hose clamp making jig in the beginning is a time saver.
New hammer wrap a couple inches of wire under the head before you use it, save you time later.
The jig is definitely a time saver.
good works !
Thank you! Cheers!
When he said he does his own stitches!!! 😶😱
awesome!
Thank you! Cheers!
i like it,but did get a brass ferrule crimper
Not sure where this design came from but it is by far the easiest to make, no welding or machining. I’ll be making one but will add a 5/32” or 3/16” rolled pin near the clamp end to help with the bend over. The jig for making the clamps was worth the price of admission, I’ll make a board with maybe three different sizes.
Side cutters but holy rusty tool batman a tube cutter is in my tool kit very east to cut hose etc.why the long tails on the wire?
Simple tool for making hose clamps and other wire clamping needs.
vaseline is a nice tip. thanks!
Thank You!!!
Awesome
What if you were to anneal the wire with a propane torch before you bent it in the jig Seem it would make it easier to work and not weaken wire appreciably
Nice information
So nice of you
Excellent video on the DIY tite clamp ,this one is the best ,simple and easy .Love your wooden circles device to bend the 14 ga wire ! Subscrbe now!!!Thank a bunch !
The only drawback to this is on a car many times you can’t get this type tool in to where the clamp needs to go and it is barely enough room for a nut driver to go eco on an outboard engineor lawnmower, but worth’s great when on a work bench and can get to it , would be difficult on bottom radiator hose but would work on top one , but heater hose is impossible with this setup
It won't work in every place. That is for sure. But where it does work it does an excellent job.
I need to make a wire clamp that can hold that rubber boot on the drum of the front load washing machine. The one that goes right behind the door. It is held by two clamps that are made of wire which I don't have and I don't to spend $20 for them if I can even find them. What wire may be the best so it won't snap and can stretch and perhaps tighten by maybe twisting it.
buen trabajo
gracias!
This is basically a Prussik not correct?
Great video! What part of Pennsylvania are you from?
I think you could benefit by using a vise to do this.
bravo
👍👍
Thanks for watching!!!
