COMP Cams G398-1000 Gator Brand Performance Hose Clamps 8-16mm 5/16-5/8 in. - 1000 Pack

The COMP Cams G398-1000 Gator Brand Performance Hose Clamps are a 1,000-piece bulk case of stainless steel worm-gear hose clamps sized for 8–16mm (5/16"–5/8") hose diameters. Designed for professional shops and high-volume applications, this bulk pack delivers the same premium clamping technology found in individual Gator Brand units at a cost-effective per-clamp price.

Unlike conventional stamped-thread clamps, Gator Brand clamps feature a stainless steel continuous band with extruded, asymmetrical threads that provide superior grip and consistent clamping force across the full hose surface. The rolled band edges eliminate sharp contact points that can cut or damage hose material — a critical advantage when working with soft silicone hoses.

Key Features:

• 1,000-piece bulk case of 8–16mm (5/16"–5/8") hose clamps
• Stainless steel continuous band construction for corrosion resistance and long service life
• Extruded, asymmetrical threads deliver even clamping force with minimal torque
• Asymmetrical (offset) gear box reduces clamp twist during installation
• Stationary gear box housing prevents movement over the hose as clamp is tightened
• Rolled band edges protect silicone and other soft-cover hoses from damage
• Rated to withstand up to 3.7 ft./lbs. of torque — where conventional clamps strip and fail
• SAE Size 3 clamp specification
• Compatible with flat blade screwdriver, metric socket wrench, or Gator Brand Flexible Clamp Tool (GFT-1, sold separately)

The Gator Brand line spans 5/16" (8mm) through 5.000" (120mm) across a full range of part numbers, making it easy to stock a complete hose clamp inventory. The G398-1000 bulk case is ideal for dealerships, performance shops, and fleet maintenance operations that require consistent, reliable clamping solutions in quantity.
