Abstract

A hose clamp, which may be completely made of plastic, comprises two clamping stirrups which can be anchored in clamping position by interaction of a tongue on one stirrup and a toothed section of the other stirrup. The hose to be clamped can either extend through coaxial openings of the clamping stirrups or be introduced between the stirrups from the side. In the first case, the clamp can only be removed over a free end of the hose while, in the second case, the clamp can be positioned at any point along the hose as desired.
