Gates Corp. announces the release of the
new PolarSeal II Clamp Assortment System.


This new kit contains handheld tools to
create A/C barrier hose assemblies directly on vehicles without the need for
expensive traditional crimping methods. Versatile and convenient, the PolarSeal
II clamp assortment also eliminates the need to stock large quantities of
pre-made hose assemblies.


“With summer coming and temperatures on
the rise, the demand to repair A/C systems will be increasing. This new
assortment makes installing PolarSeal II, our low-permeation, reduced barrier
A/C hose system, a breeze,” said Steve Baysinger, automotive aftermarket
product manager at Gates Corp.


The PolarSeal II Clamp Assortment System
includes:

• 50 clamps (in five different sizes)
color coded for easy identification;
• Specially designed Gates ratcheting
pliers that do not release until the assembly is crimped thereby preventing
leaks, improper and/or poor quality crimps, and comebacks;
• A compact and convenient small I.D.
hose cutter useful for on-vehicle repair;
• A hose cutter replacement blade;
• Clamps that include a positioning
guide to ensure proper alignment over the fitting stem, eliminating the need for a
separate cage; and
• A compartmentalized plastic toolkit
that organizes all of the pieces in the kit and includes labels with product
barcodes for easy re-stocking.
