Most frequently used are clamps in W2. For improved corrosion resistance, where needed, we recommend W4 and for environments with highcorrosion W5.On the right you will find more details about the different materials and tractor,from the table below you will easily find the corresponding national standardsto W1-W5.

	Made completely from coated steel. Low requirements in terms of corrosion resistance. Application: Household appliances, indoor plumbing work.
	Band and housing are made from Chrome-Steel AISI 430. The screw is made from zinc plated mild steel. Low to average requirements in terms of corrosion resistance, ensuring that corroded connections can be loosened. Application: Cars, lorries, mechanical engineering with low requirements in terms of corrosion resistance.
	Made entirely from Chrome- Steel AISI 430. W3 is seldom used ¨C exclusively in original equipment. Medium requirements in terms of corrosion resistance. Application: Automotive sector.
	Made entirely from Nickel- Chrome- Steel AISI 304 (or a comparable steel), also known as V2A. A special feature of this austenitic steel is its shiny, durable surface. High requirements in terms of corrosion resistance and design. Application: For critical connections in cars such as petrol pipes (SM 9 Clamps made from W4), top grade mechanical engineering, agricultural machinery, motorbikes, for attaching signs and hoses outdoors, stainless steel chimneys.
	Made entirely from Nickel- Chrome-Molybdenum-Steel AISI 316, also known as V4A. W5 is salt water resistant and can hardly be magnetised. Maximum requirements in terms of corrosion resistance. Used close to critical and electronic circuit arrangements. Application: In shipbuilding, defence technology, the foodstuffs industry, sewage treatment works, the chemical industry and mechanical engineering entailing top requirements.
