Product catalog summary
Introduction to WaveSeal360® Clamps
WaveSeal360® is a self-adjusting, constant pressure clamp designed to address hose leaks caused by thermal expansion and contraction in varying underhood temperatures. Developed by Ideal Clamp Products, Inc., this innovative clamp offers a new approach to hose connections.
Key Features
  • Patented Sealing Ring Technology: Automatically adjusts to thermal cycling, maintaining steady pressure around the connection.
  • 360-Degree Seal: Ensures a consistent seal, preventing leaks with an o-ring effect.
  • Lightweight and Compact: Weighs significantly less than traditional clamps, enhancing fuel efficiency.
  • Stainless Steel Construction: Offers superior corrosion resistance and durability.
Design and Performance
  • Wave Ring System: The unique "W" shaped wave ring responds to temperature changes, maintaining a 360-degree seal.
  • Integrated Two-Piece Design: Comprises a clamp assembly and a wave ring, distributing pressure evenly.
  • Tested Tough: Outperforms standard clamps in thermal cycling and long-term performance tests.
Technical Specifications
  • Sizes: Available in various standard sizes, with custom sizes upon request.
  • Materials: Constructed from high-quality stainless steel for all components.
  • Weight Savings: Buses can save approximately 15 lbs in clamp weight.
Applications and Customization
Ideal-Tridon offers customized solutions for specific applications, providing a range of materials and engineering support to meet unique requirements. Custom assembly clips are available for automated installation.
Conclusion
WaveSeal360® clamps represent a significant advancement in hose clamp technology, offering reliable performance in demanding environments while addressing modern challenges of weight and space constraints.

WAVESEAL 360 ®-1

Did you know hoses can leak when there is a wide • tilize a patented sealing ring technology that self U adjusts automatically as thermal cycling occurs variation in underhood temperatures? This thermal expansion and contraction loosens hose clamps over time. And when leaks happen, it is usually something critical. But the engineers at Ideal Clamp Products, Inc. have solved this problem by designing a new hybrid smart clamp. Now you can purchase a hose clamp that • xpand or contract as the sealed joint changes, E maintaining a constant, steady pressure 360 degrees around the connection • roduce a sealing o-ring effect that prevents leakage P a whole new way to think about connections because • re much lighter, smarter and more compact than A T-bolt and Belleville clamps • re all stainless steel construction A self-adjusts to the changing underhood environment.

Discover the Holding Power of WaveSeal360 Clamps ® Thermal cycling, cold flow and temperature fluctuations are among the main reasons leaks occur. The uniquely engineered profile of the IDEAL-TRIDON® WaveSeal360 hybrid smart clamp secures hose connections and prevents the unwanted flow of fluid and air. Through its patented hybrid technology, this next generation clamp seals in a steady 360-degree pattern in response to pressure and temperature changes. And with its compact design and lower profile, you get an optimal heavy-duty constant tension clamp without all the bulk. ULTRA LIGHTWEIGHT Weighs...

How WaveSeal360 Clamp Systems Beat Standard Clamps IDEAL-TRIDON WaveSeal360 Clamp Systems were designed in response to the leakage attributed to thermal cycling, plus today’s challenging lighter weight and space constraints. Integrated Two-Piece Design WaveSeal360 Clamps are comprised of two main parts, the clamp assembly and the wave ring • The wave ring is high quality stainless steel and inside the clamp Specifically tempered, thin gauge steel reacts to temperatures Becomes a smart clamp on the hose, expanding or contracting with temperatures • The clamp rides on this ring so pressure is more...
