Ordered as 330FRLAALN, this is an Ever-Tite Aluminum Multi-Notch Ferrule with a 3 inch nominal size. The multi-notch ferrule clamps onto the hose using a banding tool rather than a crimping machine, so an assembly can be made without press equipment. It fits hose with an outside diameter of 3-15/32 in to 3-23/32 in. The multi-notch pattern spreads the clamping band load across several points around the ferrule. Unlike a crimp sleeve, which is swaged by a crimping machine, this ferrule is tightened with a banding tool.
As a material, Aluminum is widely chosen for reduced operator fatigue on frequent connection cycles and good corrosion resistance in general industrial service. The material holds up against general atmospheric corrosion, many petroleum products, and weathering. It is not the right choice where strong acids and alkalis or galvanic pairing with dissimilar metals are present.
Typical settings include construction and dewatering, tank truck and bulk transfer, and general industrial hose service.
Order part number 330FRLAALN, sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 0.55 lb. As always, verify media compatibility and operating conditions against the requirements of your specific application. Not finding the exact configuration you need?
