Its a hose clamp - as opposed to to Jubilee clamp

We call it spring clamp or Mubea clamp

Personally I'd call it a good candidate for electrolysis

Cheap and nasty grippy thing.

Its the sort of clip called a B*****d because they keep flying off yer pliers when you are trying to fit them...

yuck, replace it with a stainless jubilee clamp, those things are horrid assembly line things

I think they are as good as jubilee clamps, as long as you use them for the intended diameter.

everything i type into ebay comes up with the same assortment of different types of clamps. these ones only seem to go up to about 17mm.
blues singer didn't come up with anything, worn out tyres only came up with tyres, lol. mototr factors i guess. they seem to do the job well anyway, jubilee clamps always look rubbish and a bit of an afterthought when they're on

Constant tension hose clamp

They're perfectly good but I'd still go with these instead:
