The FORD FS Style All Stainless Steel Repair Clamp combines the corrosion-resistant characteristics of stainless steel and the sealing capabilities of rubber to provide a strong, dependable and versatile repair clamp. The all stainless design is lightweight and easy to handle under adverse conditions associated with almost every main break. The fixed position of the studs provides uniform control and fewer parts to fall into the trench. The sliding lifter bar is retained on the studs by the heavy hex nuts and facilitates the installation by serving as a handle while installing the clamp. Bi-directionally tapered lugs allow the lifter bar to easily slide into locking position on the sidebar.
