V
Band Clamps 
V Band Clamps are used to pull together and connect two circular
flanges. The resulting joint is much lighter, easier to fit and
maintain and requires less space than a joint using bolted flanges.
Due to their ability to wrap around the flange profile, V Band
Clamps give a more consistent axial load to the joint than a rigid
cast clamp for improved sealing. By taking advantage of the wide
choice of clamp designs and closing mechanisms, V Band Clamps
can function reliably and safely under conditions involving stress,
vibration, corrosion and temperature variation. Teconnex has an
extensive range of clamp profiles and manufactures V Band Clamps
from 35mm to 3 metre diameter and beyond.

Ring
Clamps
Originally developed as a cost-effective clamp solution for connecting
automotive turbocharger casings, Ring Clamps are now used in many
different applications. They offer similar benefits to V Band
Clamps over other methods of connection and can be more economical
both in terms of materials and methods of manufacture. Due to
their inherent stiffness, they are not suitable where frequent
decoupling is required or in diameters below 100mm.

Band
Clamps 
Band Clamps are used for clamping together two push-fit pipes.
Applications include clamping flexible hoses to solid pipes, connecting
sections of exhaust systems and bundling securely together groups
of pipes. Teconnex Band Clamps are of a T-bolt design that offers
greater strength and a reduction in component damage often associated
with worm drive clips.

Pressed
Clamps
The generic term Pressed Clamp is afforded to a range of clamps
produced on an engineer-to-order basis by Teconnex. Each clamp
is designed to a specific customer application requirement and
generally requires special manufacturing tooling. The result is
a clamp that is extremely cost effective per individual component
once tooling costs have been covered. Teconnex has extensive application
knowledge and Pressed Clamp design experience. Concept designs
and prices can be quickly generated. Typical Pressed Clamp styles
include Double Bolted, G Coupling, Hinged and Flexi-ring Clamp
designs.

Heavy
Duty and Hygienic Clamps
The Teconnex range of Heavy Duty and Hygienic Clamps are manufactured
from heavy V section materials with seal welded solid lugs. This
results in a product which is suitable for food, beverage and
pharmaceutical applications and provides extra strength for high
pressure or high piping load applications. Teconnex offers the
Heavy Duty and Hygienic Clamp range with a number of different
closure mechanisms, including the patented safety toggle lever
for use on pressurised vessels. This safety feature prevents the
inadvertent full opening of the clamp until pressure has been
released.

Flexi-Joints

Flexi-Joints are a range of general purpose pipe connectors that
enable approximate lengths of otherwise unfinished piping to be
coupled together with the aid of just a spanner. Manufactured
in electro-plated mild steel, these couplings can be equipped
with seals in a range of materials suitable for coolant, mild
chemical and elevated temperature (to 150 degrees C) applications.
Their compact size and flexible radial positioning makes them
ideal for confined and inaccessible positions. Another major benefit
of Flexi-Joints is their ability to attenuate the transmission
of vibration and noise along piping runs.

Ranges
and styles
Teconnex clamps are offered in various ranges and styles to suit
virtually any application. Closure mechanisms include conventional
bolted, single and multi T-bolt, "loop couplers" for quick disengagement
of the bolt and toggle levers. Teconnex has a large number of
V sections to cover a wide range of diameters and applications.
