Ink Tube Clamp for DTF, DTG, UV & Wide-Format Printers
The Ink Tube Clamp is a maintenance and flow-control tool designed to temporarily restrict or shut off ink flow in compatible inkjet printer tubing. It is useful during printhead replacement, damper changes, pump service, ink-line maintenance, and printer transport, helping reduce unwanted ink movement while components are disconnected or serviced.
By applying pressure to a flexible ink tube, the clamp helps limit leaks, dripping, and backflow without requiring the entire ink-delivery system to be drained. This can make routine maintenance cleaner and easier when working with wide-format, Direct-to-Film (DTF), Direct-to-Garment (DTG), UV, or continuous ink supply system (CISS) printers.
