Turbosmart Turbo-Seal Tension Clamps 1.375-1.875 (Universal)
Turbosmart Turbo-Seal Tension Clamps secure silicone hoses with diameters from 1.375 to 1.875 inches on turbocharger inlets, outlets, and intercooler piping. These clamps deliver consistent clamping force to prevent boost leaks under high pressure and temperature swings. Universal design fits most turbocharged vehicles including Subaru WRX, STI, and similar performance applications.
Key Features
- Adjustable Range: Fits 1.375-1.875 inches (35-48mm) outer diameter hoses for versatile use on small to medium turbo plumbing
- Spring-Loaded Tensioner: High-tensile 301 stainless steel spring applies constant pressure despite hose expansion, contraction, or vibration
- Stainless Steel Band: T304 stainless steel band resists corrosion, heat up to 500°F, and wear for long-term reliability
- Zinc-Plated Housing: Durable housing protects internals and ensures smooth operation in harsh engine bay conditions
- Hose-Friendly Design: Distributes even force without cutting or damaging silicone hoses, ideal for high-boost setups
Product Notes
- Verify hose outer diameter falls within 35-48mm before installation
- Use only with silicone or reinforced rubber hoses, not rigid pipes
- Packaged individually for protection during shipping
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- Slide clamp over hose ends, align with mating parts, then compress spring to tension
- Requires no special tools. compatible with all standard barbed turbo fittings

Clamps
Exhaust clamps, hose clamps, and line clamps are the small hardware that keeps performance systems sealed and rattle-free. Whether you are finishing an exhaust build, routing coolant lines, or securing boost piping on a turbocharged engine, the right clamp makes the difference between a clean install and a leak.Popular UpgradesBand clamps and slip-fit exhaust clamps are the most popular choice for performance exhaust work, providing a tight seal without crushing the pipe. T-bolt clamps are preferred for silicone couplers on intercooler and intake piping where high boost pressure demands extra clamping force. Stainless steel construction is standard on quality performance clamps for corrosion resistance under heat cycling.What clamps work best for exhaust connections?Lap-joint exhaust clamps and two-bolt band clamps are the most common choices for slip-fit exhaust connections. For a cleaner look with leak-free performance, v-band clamps paired with matching flanges offer the best res...

Fabrication
Fabrication parts and materials provide the raw components needed to build, repair, and modify custom exhaust systems, turbocharger plumbing, intercooler piping, fuel system lines, oil routing, and engine bay heat management on performance and competition vehicles. Stainless steel tubing, titanium tubing, aluminum charge piping, mandrel bends, pie cuts, flanges, merge collectors, V-band clamps, O2 sensor bungs, AN fittings, PTFE hose kits, braided fuel and oil lines, heat shields, and welding supplies are the backbone of any serious custom fabrication project. Professional fabricators, race team mechanics, and advanced DIY builders who want full control over exhaust routing, charge pipe layout, or fuel system plumbing choose raw fabrication materials rather than pre-bent kits because custom fabrication allows fitment solutions that no universal kit can accommodate. Brands including Vibrant Performance, Ticon Industries, Stainless Bros, Radium Engineering, Fragola, and DEI provide th...
