There is a much easier and proper way to remove these Oetiker clamps. There is a flap or tab on the outside of the clamp that you simply pry up with a flat head screwdriver. Comes right off. Also, if you have the proper size clamp for the hose being used....then 1 clamp is plenty!

Do you need to use crimpers or can you just use the screw type ring in the right size?

Regular worm gear hose clamps work fine on this polyethylene sprinkler pipe. Those single use clamps are called Oetiker clamps and are available in a lot of different sizes.

The answer below is a good one. You can use either type, screw tight or crimp tight. Is this is your first go around the screw types are more forgiving

You’ll want 2 of the screw type clamps on each end of the coupling. 1 simply doesn’t do it.

Eventually yes. They are stainless but stainless will rust with enough time.

A few hints: 1) I got dizzy watching your camera wiggle waggle all over the place but thank goodness you got a camera operator to assist. 2) Get a piece of cardboard, newspaper, or a small bucket to put your tools and parts on to keep them out of the dirt and mud, 3) Don't rinse your tools and parts in the muddy water and then crimp the dirt and mud INTO the crimp 4) that was a PROPANE torch (not butane) 5) No need to double clamp each side, a single clamp properly placed and crimped is all that is needed. 6)Take a course (or at least read the instructions) before you attempt to teach somebody else.
