What size Jubilee clips for the air hoses?

[apmaman]

Dont know why they dont have these on the cars instead of those metal rings you have to be arnie to squeeze enough to loosen them up with.

Anyone replaced them? I think they might be 80mm but I'm looking for confirmation before I buy some.


Cheers!

why not buy the tool for the standard clips?

Got a link for it?

get a piece of string, wrap it round the pipe and use a black marker to put a line one the string where they cross over, measure ditance between black marks, voila, sized?

That dimension will need dividing by 3.142 to convert the circumference of the pipe to the diameter of the jubilee clip.

you're right, it will.
As they say, you learn something new everyday, today I learnt that jubilee clips are sold by diameter

If your going to do it properly, divide it by at least..........
