These any good? Thinking they might give a more even clamping than normal ones?

mine is similar but used a "Hex" head instead of bolt head to clamp up - it seems to do the job fine!

As with Steve, ive used one to good effect on my exhaust. Not sure what 'head' options there are but mine looks same as on link.

I've got one on my exhaust too; is has hex head but is not the hinged type as shown in the link.
these should be strong than the worm drive types (jubliee clip) as all that holds those together is the pressed housing for the worm gear whcih can
distort under heavy load so the screw no lopnger sits in the clamp grooves (usaully happens on cheap copies)

was thinking about using them on my radiator hose. Think i am going silicon route as it all has to be changed anyway
How do you all use them on the exhaust? Keeping wrapping on?

I used them on my escort cossie, cos i kept blowing the boost hoses off when giving it some stick was only running 26 psi !
A mate has used them for his exhaust clamps, looks a lot better than u clamps!
If it doesn't fit MODIFY it!!

Does it matter if they are over the top for rad hose? They seem to have a larger clamping area and are supposed to be more even.
Thought they might prevent leaks. And they look quite nice. i guess in some places they will not fit
