Hi all, Just interested has anyone tried using hose clamps on mantles? Is this a terrible idea? Wondering if these would make mantles much easier to attach. Something like this:
Haven't seen it done. But, If you get one the right size, I can't see why it wouldn't work. Try it and let us know how you go.
I will be concerned with the heat expansion and shrinkage when cold, mantles here in the USA come with wire clip called "insta-clip" but I see them fail more than string type. The fall off from the burner tube.
