What is StepLess Technology?
Oetiker invented the StepLess ear clamp in 1979. The ear clamp’s special design eliminates steps and/or overlaps on the inner circumference of the clamp for a 360° leak-free seal. Because the tongue resides in a groove, the “tongue-in-groove” feature exerts pressure on the assembled parts over 360°, enabling the clamp to apply a continuous radial force completely around the connection’s diameter.
How to Install
These clamps can be easily installed using 3-Handle Ratchet Pincer Installation Tool for Oetiker PEX Clamps.
