Rubber-lined stainless steel mounting clamp: the anti-vibration solution for your van pipes and cables

In a converted van, any poorly secured pipe or cable will eventually move, rub or even crack over the course of journeys. The Osculati rubber-lined stainless steel mounting clamp solves this problem in a single component: it firmly secures your pipes and conduits to the wall or chassis, while preventing direct contact between the metal and the tube thanks to its rubber lining. No more rattling pipes in wheel arches or false floors!

Made from AISI 304 stainless steel, this clamp provides long-lasting resistance to moisture and corrosion, which is essential for anything running beneath the floor or in the technical areas of a converted van. Its EPDM rubber lining absorbs road vibrations and protects the tube surface against wear, a detail that is particularly important for an annealed copper gas system, where even the slightest micro-crack can cause a leak. This clamp is suitable for both semi-rigid PEX water pipes and conduits bundling several flexible electrical cables.

Available individually and in three diameters (8, 10 and 12 mm), it is suitable for most pipe sizes found in a van conversion: copper gas system, water system, electrical wiring. Its lining can be slightly deformed so it can be positioned after the pipe has been installed, greatly simplifying fitting in corners that are already wired or plumbed.

• Ø 8 mm: the most common size for securing 8 mm annealed copper gas pipe or small-section electrical cables
• Ø 10 mm: suitable for 10 mm annealed copper gas pipe and semi-rigid PEX water pipes of a similar diameter
• Ø 12 mm: designed for larger-diameter PEX water pipes or bundles of several flexible cables

The stated diameter corresponds to the internal diameter of the clamp: check the outside diameter of your pipe or cable bundle before choosing the appropriate model.

How do you install the rubber-lined stainless steel mounting clamp?

No special tools are required for installation. First select the diameter matching your pipe or cable conduit, then position the clamp around the tube, ensuring that the rubber lining is evenly distributed around the entire circumference. Next, secure the clamp to the wall or support using a suitable screw, then tighten firmly to ensure a stable hold. A final visual check of the fastening before putting the system back into service is recommended, especially for a gas system.

For screws, always choose stainless steel to prevent electrolysis through contact with the clamp. For the pipe itself, see our extra-flexible 10 mm drinking water pipe or our full range of pipes and flexible hoses for vans. For electrical installations, this clamp pairs well with our H07 VK electrical cables for neat, securely held cable routing.

A rubber-lined stainless steel mounting clamp ideal for obtaining VASP certification

The VASP standard requires a rigid copper or steel gas system outside the sealed enclosure; otherwise, approval for your converted vehicle will be refused. A poorly secured copper pipe that vibrates or rubs against the bodywork can eventually crack and cause a leak, an issue that inspection bodies examine closely. By firmly holding the copper pipe along its route, this clamp directly contributes to the compliance of your gas installation and reduces the risk of non-compliance during the VASP inspection. Also consider our GOK 8 mm test valve for VASP approval, essential for checking the leak-tightness of the same system.
