【DAYTONA】Stainless Steel Band Review
Good thing it came in a two-pack.
In the summer, when we replaced the radiator hose, two of the OEM hose bands reached their limits, so we had to use a hose band purchased at Home center as a stopgap measure. In the meantime, the Material:The Stainless Steel one served its function, but the band was 13mm wide and I didn't like the look of it.
When we went touring the other day, there was a small amount of coolant leakage from the hose that connects to the Radiator, which splashed around and stained a part of the Engine white. Needless to say, I washed the affected area as soon as I got back because coolant has a bad effect on the paint.
There were no coolant leaks for a while after the hose was replaced, so we assumed that the band had loosened. It might have been OK to retighten the band as it was, but we decided to replace the band because it might loosen again and we did not like the appearance of the band.
Among the many hose bands available, we selected the DAYTONA band, which is narrow at 8mm in width and can hold two hoses, but is also Reasonable. However, the Radiator hose at the location where I wanted to tighten is about 32mm in diameter, and this product can be used from 25mm to 50mm, but there would be a surplus of large size. Unfortunately, DAYTONA does not sell a product in the correct size.
I decided to replace the Band and broke the first one. I tightened the screws too hard to make sure they were tight enough, since they had leaked coolant, but the screws spun around and damaged the Band, rendering it unusable. The second one was tightened carefully and firmly, and the coolant leak was solved.
The second one was going to be used to replace the band on the Hose under the tank the next time I remove the tank, which is a shame. I regret that I was not careful when tightening it in.

The equivalent device was sold at a bargain price in the home center. Although it is good since it purchased in order to float a mailing cost .. I think that it is quality.

It was used in order to stop an end, when winding the Thermoprotection lap of a DAYTONA around an Exhaust pipe similarly.
A Tape is fixable firmly with the
screw thread, and since it is a product made from a STAINLESS STEEL, it is likely to be hard to carry out heat deterioration.
Although it is completely satisfactory, one Bolt to tighten is made in Steel.
When becoming useless, it is likely to corrode from there.

If the size used since a vantage was fixed uses wire on fixation (sweat) which was a limit since the path of the muffler which is an object for 25~50phi and which was rolled in fact was 50 phi, but this stainless band is used, it will be settled in a beau
