OMC Evinrude Johnson Snap Clamp

OMC, Evinrude, and Johnson clamps are used to secure various hoses and tubes to outboards. They are snap-type clamps, often made of metal or a metal-like material, and come in various sizes and styles. They are typically OEM parts, meaning they were originally used by OMC, Evinrude, or Johnson when the outboard was manufactured. Some examples include OEM snap clamps like 0322654 and 0322652, as well as other clamp types like 0980021 and 0348839

Here's a more detailed breakdown

Snap clamps:

These clamps are designed to snap to place, providing a secure connection between the hose or tube and the outboard component.

OEM vs Aftermarket:

It's important to distinguish between OEM parts and aftermarket parts. OEM parts are specifically designed for the outboard model and ensure proper fit and function. Aftermarket parts can be cheaper but may not be as reliable or compatible.

Part Number 

Different clamps have different part numbers, indicating their size, shape, and intended use For example 0322654 is a specific snap clamp, while 0980021 may be a different type of clamp.

Clamping range:

Some clamps, like the Sierra 18-8201 clamp, have a specific clamping range, which is the range of hose or tube diameters they can accomodate
