Why buy rubber insert clamps from us

  • Tubeclo exclusive brand — DIN 3015, one system with the plain clamps.
  • Both series from stock — standard 6–32 mm & heavy 6–172 mm, out within 24 hours.
  • Inserts sold separately too — the wear part has its own order code.
  • GS or SS316 hardware — galvanized for indoors, stainless for marine.
  • The honest answer — if your run does not need the insert, we say so.

Tubeclo Rubber Insert Clamps

DIN 3015 · 6 – 172 mm · TPE insert 73 Shore-A
Ready stock Exclusive brand Standard & heavy

A DIN 3015 clamp with a thermoplastic elastomer insert between the shell and the line — for extra vibration and noise reduction, and the gentle installation of hose and cable. The shell holds; the insert cushions.

Overview

The shell holds, the insert cushions

When the insert earns its cost

Where a rigid bore would transmit pulsation and structure-borne noise: power packs, lines near pumps, rail & vehicles, marine & shipbuilding, oil & gas, automotive, pharmaceutical, paper mills, food & chemical processing, and the energy sector. Also for hose and soft-jacketed cable — the insert grips without crushing the cover.

When a plain clamp does the job

On a rigid steel tube run, indoors, with no vibration problem — a plain Tubeclo clamp is cheaper and does the job. Tell us the duty and we give you the honest answer.


Material

The TPE insert — material properties

PropertyValueTest standard
MaterialThermoplastic elastomer (TPE), black, code RI
Hardness73 Shore-A
Modulus of elasticity (23 °C)16 N/mm²ASTM D 412
Tensile strength8.3 N/mm²ASTM D 412
Insert temperature range−40 … +125 °C
Consistent againstWeak acids · solvents · alcohol · other oils · seawater
Conditionally consistentBenzene · mineral oils

The shell is the temperature limit, not the insert: the insert takes +125 °C, but a PPR shell stops at +90 °C and PA at +120 °C — the assembly follows the lower rating.


Sizes

Size groups — they do not follow the ordinary series

The RI line has no groups 1, 2, 3 or 5. Standard series is groups 4 and 6 only; heavy runs 4S to 10S. All sizes in millimetres, as printed in the catalogue.

Inserts fit across series: RI-xx-4/4S fits both standard group 4 and heavy 4S; RI-xx-6/5S fits standard 6 and heavy 5S. The insert is the wear part, with its own order code.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What does the rubber insert actually do?

It is the part that touches the line — the shell holds, the insert cushions. It absorbs pulsation and noise, and lets a hose move slightly without chafing.

Why is the size group different from the ordinary series?

The relationship between tube OD and RI clamp size does not match the standard series — this line has no groups 1, 2, 3 or 5. Standard is groups 4 & 6 only; heavy runs 4S–10S. The tables are above.

Can I order just the inserts?

Yes — the insert is the wear part and has its own order code: field IV option 2 in the part number means insert only.

Does one insert fit multiple clamps?

Yes — RI-xx-4/4S fits both standard group 4 and heavy 4S; RI-xx-6/5S fits standard 6 and heavy 5S.

What temperature range?

Whichever is lower — usually the shell. The insert takes −40…+125 °C, but a PPR shell stops at +90 °C and PA at +120 °C.

PPR or PA — which shell?

PPR is the standard; PA adds 30 °C at the top end and 10 °C at the bottom.

Suitable for seawater and washdown?

The insert is rated consistent for seawater; specify SS316 metal parts (SS suffix) rather than galvanized.

What is the maximum size?

172 mm on heavy series group 10S; the standard series tops out at 32 mm.

Why TPE instead of ordinary rubber?

TPE stretches and returns close to its original shape — longer service life — and it can be injection moulded, giving a precise fit rather than a wrapped strip.

What actually is a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE)?

A material from a group of copolymers or polymer blends that combines thermoplastic and elastomeric properties. Its three required traits: processable in the melted state at elevated temperature, free of creep/cold flow, and stretchable with a return to its original shape once the stress is removed. The six classes: styrenic block copolymers, thermoplastic vulcanizates, thermoplastic polyurethanes, thermoplastic copolyesters, thermoplastic polyolefin elastomers and thermoplastic polyamides — also used in automotive parts, shoe soles, roofing, HVAC and medical equipment.

Do I need the insert at all?

It earns its cost where there is pulsation, noise, flexing hose or compressible covers. On a rigid steel tube run, indoors, with no vibration problem, a plain Tubeclo clamp is cheaper and does the job. Tell us the duty — we give the honest answer.
