Introduction
Duct clamps are an essential part of any dust collection system. They provide a way to secure the ductwork to the main system body and help to prevent the ducts from becoming dislodged, allowing the Dust to escape. In addition, clamping the ducts together creates a tighter seal that can help to improve the overall system efficiency. A wide variety of clamp designs are available to choose from so you can select the best clamp for your particular application.
The six most popular duct clamps in industrial dust collection duct discussed in this article are below.
1. Quick Release Rapid Lock Pull Ring
This clamp is the most popular one in the dust collection field. It suits two duct fittings that have both lip ends. Moreover, the red one for the flanged ends is a 6mm 90-degree flange on the ducting end the black one is for the rolled edge flange.
Structure
In this structure, two parts are attached with the hinge while there is a quick lock handle that you lift to release and insert it between two duct fittings (pipe straights, bends, reducers, dampers, branches, etc.) and pull the handle tight to lock it, the locking pin will fix the hole.
The band structure for the red one is the v band structure, which suits a 90deg flanging duct, and the black clamp has a u band for the rolled edge duct .
Material
| Material | Thickness | Sealing Gasket Material | Gasket Color |
|---|---|---|---|
| Galvanized Steel, Stainless Steel 304 | 1.0mm and 1.2mm | PVC, EPDM, TPE, Nitrile or customized | Red, blue, black, white. |
Specifications
They are easy to attach and can be tightened manually without any tools. The diameter is from 80mm to 450mm or as per requirement. It can be a maximum of up to 900mm. With our range of quick-release clamps, you will get the best products for connecting your suction pipes for chip and dust extraction. Thanks to their hinges, the quick-release clamps can be opened very wide to enable the pipes to push into the groove of the EPDM seal.
Our quick-release clamps with EPDM seals are available with diameters ranging from 80 to 450 mm. The wide clamps help to stabilize the entire extraction system. They are much better than the wide clamps and dismantling the system is easy, as the EPDM seal does not adhere to the pipes like a silicone seal.
Application
The clamp is the most popular in the dust collection system, but not limited to that usage as it fits any fittings of the same edge feature. For example, you can use it for fume extraction, vacuum system, exhaust system, animal feed fittings and industrial ventilation systems. You can also use it for some bulk goods transport systems or other products that have a similar flange.
2. Adjustable Quick Release Clamp
The second one is almost the same as the top 1 model, exact band, the same material, just a different latch mechanism. It is an adjustable bolt latch to replace the above lever handle to make it more movable, but not in a wide range.
3. Double Bolt Slim Ring
This ring is lightweight, with a material of only 1.0mm, and the bandwidth is only 3mm. It is narrow and suitable for small ducts recommended to use a wide clamp for larger diameters. These pipe clamps can be easily mounted regardless of the pipe diameter.
Band structure: U band
Specification: φ80-φ450mm
Gasket: with or without
Application
You can use it in assembling suction pipes for wood chips and sawdust, industrial dust/chip collection systems, air exhaust, fume extraction and collection systems for carpentry/joinery/woodworking shops.
4. Adjustable Slim Ring
The quick-release clamps with butyl seals are ideal for connecting your industrial dust collection pipes with diameters between 80 and 500 mm.
They are easy to attach: You can remove the blue plastic film and push the pipe into the clamp groove. Manually tighten the clamp by flipping the lever and adjust the clamp using a cordless electric wrench or a screwdriver. The piping system is easy to dismantle using these clamps.
There is another benefit of using these clamps, which is that these clamps ensure perfect leak tightness and help to lessen the suction noise significantly.
5. Wide Clamps
The coupling is a wide clamp with a long bolt fitted with a bandwidth of 30mm. Using wide clamps for suction elements with a larger diameter than 300 mm and smaller diameters is better and requires more stability. Our range of products includes wide clamps with a diameter from 180 to 600 mm. The clamps are easy to use and inexpensive though they have a larger width. You can improve leak tightness by attaching silicone seals to the clamps.
6. Wall Ceiling Brackets (Right Picture: this is legs for brackets)
The clamps and mounting brackets/wall mounts with which you can suspend the clamps from the ceiling or fasten them to the wall. It is better to use a threaded rod with a bushing if there is a wide gap between the clamp and the wall or ceiling to which you want to fasten the clamp.
