hose clamp
Pipe grip ring
A hose clamp is a fastener that secures a flexible hose onto a fitting or pipe, preventing leaks and disconnection.
The most common type is a worm-gear clamp—a metal band tightened by turning a screw: I need to replace the hose clamp on the radiator hose.
Spring clamps and wire clamps serve similar purposes in automotive and plumbing applications.
