the auction states that they're missing proper o-rings.
Just go the v-band route, do what you know already works perfect.

$45 for one connection? That is halfway to a complete CDM charge piping kit. :1

Not many cars need Wiggins/Hargett level hardware.

I think, I am going to put Hargett's on the dodge, I will do a little write up if I go that route.

no but it makes your e-***** bigger


actually i just stumbled on those browsing ebay and thought damn thats cheap; didnt even know the hargett clamps existed i really like the design on those...

either way i proably wont run them im fine w/ welded nipples and worm clamps on napa nylon enforced couplers...

my friend might run some on his racecar; he's having big problems w/ blowing couplers and was gunna go w/ some regular v-band but he likes the cinese wiggins clamps but i'll show him the hargett ones

I have a 41 ****** with a big block Ford coming in for a turbo kit and the owner has requested all Wiggins clamps.

The hargetts are 1/3 of the price, and are much easier to use. I have them on my civc (i actually had the first set of 3 inch, owners a good friend of mine). Its nice being able to pop off my ic and all my charge piping in less a minute and putting it back on in about about the same time. They've been tested to about 500 times the amount of pressure anyone of us will ever use.
