Line clamps. They’re one of those tiny things that tend to get overlooked when building a car—right up until it’s time to run the fluid lines. The good news is that you’re no longer stuck with zip ties and duct tape. Line clamps these days are made from stainless steel, aluminum—even nylon. There’s such a wide variety of styles, shapes, and colors that we’re sure you’ll find one to fit your project.
