I get 'em at the local chain parts places all the time. Haven't check NAPA, but I never had to because the others have them.

I believe they are called fuel injection hose clamps vs. just a hose clamp. I also have been able to by at local FLAPS.

Looks a little bit oversized, but maybe comes with the pic.
(Thicknes of material) I am using thinner types to prevent
hose damages (Pressure loss)

Those clamps, the Napa photo and the German, both work the same way. The only difference is the thickness of the band material, and I don't see how that could affect performance or damage the hose. Same width and surface area.

Whew, Nine 14, you had me worried there. I have three or four BMW's in the garage with those Napa fuel line clamps. Couldn't deal with any more balls of fire between my legs. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

That's what i have said, the thickness.

A friend of mine is working for mercedes company in a german workshop.
The Mechanics are directed, not to use those clamps in the fi system and i do
same.

At least we are talking about an product with worth of a few cent.

The second photo there shows something more like "constant torque clamps." I use them for everything with larger than 1" diameters. Much stronger than fuel injection hose clamps or radiator hose clamps, but the range of diameter is much smaller and they take a while to thread on or off. So you really need to know the exact size of initial free outer diameter and how far it down it should clamp before you buy them because they're spendy. But it's total clamp porn. I get them at the local Aeroquip dealer here in Portland.

Having said that, fuel injection hose clamps are perfectly suitable for fuel injection hose clamping.

The "real" FI clamps have rolled edges, not flat like the ones pictured. While better than the worm screw type, they're still not right.
