<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Just my limited experience with
replumbing a house with PEX using the SS band clamps. They are
fine until you start pulling and flexing on the tubes. They can
leak but will seal up once left alone. This might be a problem in
a truck. The issue isn't the bands the issue is the PEX. The
clamps are quite similar to crimped clamps used on modern cars.<br>
