Can I reuse the Auxiliary bolt for mounting RS and SC shell clamps, galvanized carbon steel after replacing it with the short mounting screws?

Yes . you can reuse the Auxiliary bolt for mounting RS and SC shell clamps, galvanized carbon steel only if it remains undamaged and free of excessive wear or corrosion after removal. These auxiliary bolts (long DIN912 screws) are designed for temporary use during assembly to achieve proper compression; they are then replaced by the short mounting screws from the clamp set. Before reusing, inspect the bolt threads for stripping, the shank for bending, and the plating for significant corrosion or flaking. If the bolt shows any thread wear, deformation, or compromised galvanization that could reduce clamping reliability or make future tightening insecure, discard it and use a new one. For safety-critical or pressure applications, industry best practice is to replace temporary assembly fasteners rather than reuse them to ensure consistent clamp performance and avoid failures.

Is the Auxiliary bolt for mounting RS and SC shell clamps, galvanized carbon steel compatible with different hose diameters?

Yes. The Auxiliary bolt for mounting RS and SC shell clamps, galvanized carbon steel is compatible with different hose diameters insofar as it is used only as a temporary long screw to allow proper compression of the RS and SC shell clamps during assembly. Its role is to hold the clamp halves together while you compress and adjust the clamp to fit the hose; after achieving the correct fit it is removed and replaced with the short mounting screws from the clamp set. Compatibility therefore depends on the RS/SC clamp model and its adjustable range, not on the auxiliary bolt itself.
