Jamie 1 Posted November 17, 2014 Just a quick one - is there any advantage to using the specific Samco hose clips or will the Screwfix stainless Jubilees do the job just as well? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
science 0 Posted November 17, 2014 Jubilee type doesn't produce even pressure all the way round and can create a pinch point, slicing into the hose. Use jubilees with care or buy silicone hose clamps the original Corrado twin eared type can also be used. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted November 17, 2014 Am swapping all my jubilee clips back to spring type clamps. They are much better. I keep meaning to post up all the sizes you need. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Erallus 10 Posted November 17, 2014 I'd be interested in doing this, think all mine are jubilee clips :/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dragon green 5 Posted November 20, 2014 If your using silicone hoses,use this first [ATTACH]80198[/ATTACH] It never goes off,but helps seal the hose,I've had no leaks since using it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie 1 Posted November 22, 2014 Right sorry to drag this up again but I've just been looking at the JCS hose clamps that Roose supply, can anyone tell me the difference between these and Jubilee clips? They look identical to the ones I have just a different manufacturer... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seanl82 23 Posted November 22, 2014 Look like a standard jubilee to me. Have they changed recently then? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie 1 Posted November 22, 2014 Same here Sean - hence my confusion... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted November 22, 2014 They all seem to be made by a place called JCS. I bought loads and looked at loads and ended up coming to the conclusion not that many people make jubilee clips. They just buy them in. I did have problems with hoses popping off or leaking and the clips damage the hoses. I'm only going to use the spring clamps on coolant hoses from now on.
