This project represents what we excel at here at HPL Stamping and is something you would find on our production floor on an everyday basis.

Designed for use in an exhaust system application, the clamp’s sturdy construction promoted a strong and reliable connection under harsh operating conditions.

We executed a controlled sequence of precision press strokes using a variety of tools on our CNC turret and punch presses to form the component from .0897” thick soft temper cold rolled steel. The parts were deburred, and we applied a high quality zinc plated finish to impart the required level of heat resistance and corrosion protection.

Featuring finished dimensions of 3.5” in length x 0.76” in width and a 2.250” I.D., the skills of our press operators combined with our cutting edge equipment allowed us to achieve ±.010” tolerances with consistent repeatability on this 500 unit order.
