Undoing jubilee clip

[Mur Huwcun]

Funny idea that

As mentioned the other bit has sheared off when they reach the correct torque on assembly line.

Funny idea that

Actually quite a clever idea the more you think about it

Good idea. As it happens I got my hand stuck due to the tail of a jubilee clip stuck under my watch and wrist. Was a right bugger, maybe I shouldn’t wear a watch !

The Dremel is good. I got one for a specific job and now find I use it for a lot of things. A thin grinding stone carefully used will cut through a jubilee clip without cutting the tubing. I think there are slim cutting discs available too.

I just use some side cutters to go between the cap and the hex. Come off a piece of cake like that!

I first learnt about them on an assembly line where some technicians had the back of their hands cut while reaching past hose clip tails. It was an eye opener that even on an assembly line, before components like the cab goes on and gets in the way, it can still be very awkward reaching in to fit some parts.

Why are they called 'Jubilee clip'? Invented by Mr Jubilee?

Because they are silver and were invented in 1977[emoji23][emoji23]

The Jubilee brand clamp brand was started by Commander Lumley Robinson of the British Royal Navy, who was granted the first UK patent for his device by the London Patent Office in 1921[citation needed] while operating as a sole trader. It is now subject to a registered trademark in many countries around the world. The design has been copied with many variations, and there are many other hose clips of a similar design.

Lumley Robinson was born in Leeds, Yorkshire in 1877 to a family of strict Methodists. In his first job he worked for John Fowler's, a highly respected engineering firm in Leeds before later joining the Royal Navy. He married Emily Boyd Sykes at the Mint Chapel, Holbeck, Leeds on 23 October 1906 and they moved to Gillingham in Kent when Lumley was based at nearby Chatham Dockyard which at the time was almost exclusively dedicated to the Royal Navy. During his time in the Navy, Lumley was on HMS Aboukir when it was sunk in the North Sea, along with two other ships, during World War I, and he spent several hours in the sea before he was rescued.
Together Lumley and Emily had four children: Henry, who went to Cambridge University and became Director of Education for Rochdale; Leonard, who joined the Royal Navy and then later worked for an advertising company called Ripley Preston in Bristol, where the first well-known advertisements for Jubilee Clips were made; Dorothy, who married and stayed in Gillingham and John, who would eventually run the family business.
During his time in the navy it had often seemed obvious to Lumley that a new way needed to be found to attach a hose to a pipe. On leaving the Navy he spent much time with a friend who had a lathe in his garage, making things, and in particular looking for a simple and effective solution to the problem. Once he had the first clips made he went to London every day attempting to sell them. His wife Emily had such faith in her husband that she suggested re-mortgaging their house to pay for the first lot of steel, but this was never necessary, because the company took off.
Commander Lumley Robinson died of a heart attack on holiday in Jersey on 20 August 1939 aged 62.

The NH clips with the caps are an utter git when you can't even see the clip you want to undo.

I've ended up sharpening the end of a pry bar and chiselling one off before...
