I ordered the gear wrench 145 and the Cal Van 16000. Both are very similar, but have some differences. The Gear Wrench right away looks like a more expensive too. Not better, just more expensive. It has rubber on the handle, is all black, etc. The gear wrench also self opens, the Cal Van doesn't. You have to manually open it. Advantage gear wrench. The gear wrench makes more noise. The parts on the end - the clamps, are on looser. The Cal Van hardly rattles and seems to have slightly tougher tolerances. Advantage Cal Van. The gear wrench opens slightly wider. Very slight. I'll call it a draw because it's not significant enough to give it a greater capacity. At a certain point with both of these wrenches you need to step up to a larger wrench for larger hoses. Finally the gear wrench is made in Taiwan. The Cal Van is assembled in the USA with global parts. Now for me that's advantage Cal Van. Between the two it really comes down to self opening vs assembled in the USA. The self opening might wear out or break at some point I don't know. Both appear to be well made and should last a long time - I am hoping. You can't go wrong with either tool I don't think. The gear wrench does advertise a lifetime warranty, but with all warranties ask yourself are you really going to take the time to get another? Did you save the receipt? Etc. most of us will just buy another wrench.With that said after using them both neither stopped the flow 100% out a 5/8" hose. I ended up using a plug.

These hoes pinch off pliers are so handy to have around, I don’t know why I ever messed with trying to use bolts and rubber plugs in hoses. These pliers do a great job on rubber fuel lines, small vacuum lines, heater hoses and pretty much anything else. They do not do damage to the hose yet they crimp tightly and do not allow leaks. The only complaint I have about them is they are heavy, that can sometimes be a problem with smaller hoses.

I work on a lot of lawn mowers and these come in handy for pinching off the fuel line so that I can work on the carburetor. They are well built and get the job done. My main compliant is how big they are. They are probably more suited for pinching off a car radiator hose. The only company that I found that makes a good set of these for small engines is Blue Point, but I am not willing to pay that premium for such a simple tool so I use these.

I had never used anything like this before. My 1 year old snowblower was not starting and a video online pointed me to the solution on cleaning the carburetor. I found these on Amazon and it helped me with my repair. 30 minutes later, I was up and running. Hopefully I won't need to use these often, but glad I got them. Very good quality and easy to use.

Got these when I work on radiators and other hoses in our vehicles. I had some other clamps from the local hazard fraught, but honestly they were pretty cheap and difficult to use (they required you to turn a small knob dozens of times to clamp onto a hose). This is much easier - squeeze the pliers on the hose, and it locks into place. Takes 2 seconds to setup. To release, there's a lever to disengage the teeth and you are ready to clamp again. Build quality is decent, and since it's not something I use daily, I'm sure it'll last a long time.

I was replacing a pump in in a hydronic heating system. I needed to clamp off 3/4 heater hose. I bought the cheaper plastic sets of 3(2 sets). The largest clamp would not pinch off the hose. Not a good time to find this out. I had to stop the repair long enough to order these metal professional clamps. These were more expensive but…they work! And work great.

When you want to pinch off a hose they don’t lock at a tight point. They release to the next tightest lock point and then the hose just continues to drip. I also found that the lever is quite easy to release if touched, even lightly, when working near the tool. I did find a solution by using a wire tie to hold it in place. But I really shouldn’t have to.

These work great and are decent quality. I use them frequently on heater hoses with zero leakage or hose damage.

Wären die Zangenbacken gerade zu einander und nicht gewinkelt, wäre es die perfekte schlauchzange, für große dicke Schläuche ungeeignet man weiß nie ob die gegenseite richtig geschlossen ist

I’d expect better for the price. They do work in a pinch… pardon my pun
