8581240060047 Genuine Plastic Hose Clamp 65mm Internal Diameter for Electrolux Group Washing Machines

Here's a genuine plastic hose clamp with a 65mm internal diameter, part number 8581240060047, from the Electrolux group laundry parts range. Clamps like this hold a hose tight over its spigot so water can't seep past the joint. No models are listed against it, so measure your old clamp or the hose end it sits on, and compare the style, before ordering.

Leaks at a hose joint inside the washer

Inside a washing machine, the larger hoses join the tub, sump and pump, and each joint relies on a clamp to stay sealed. Plastic clamps can crack with age, heat and vibration, or get damaged when a hose is pulled off during a repair. A failed clamp often shows up as water pooling under the machine, a damp floor after a drain or spin, or a hose that has slipped partly off its outlet. Dry the area and run a short cycle with the panel off to find the leak.

Fitting the hose clamp

Switch off at the wall, turn off the taps and drain any water left in the machine before opening it up. Note how the old clamp is positioned and which way its locking tab faces. Push the hose fully onto its spigot, slide the new clamp into the same spot and lock it closed. Run a rinse cycle and check for drips.

Questions about this part

Will a metal worm drive clamp do the same job?

Sometimes, but the factory clamp is shaped to suit the hose and the space around it. A different clamp may sit unevenly or catch on nearby parts. Matching the original 65mm plastic clamp is the surest way to get a reliable seal.
