Abstract: A reversible hose clamp tool for use with double ring spring wire hose clamps comprised of a pair of main members and a pivot which resembles pliers and operates similarly thereto. Each main member is an elongated tool member comprised of a handle section, a pivot section and a jaw section. The handle section is elongated to provide leverage to ease operation and to provide comfort to the user. If desired, it may be patterned, knurled or otherwise treated to provide an improved gripping surface or can be provided with a cushion coating which provides a protective grip for the handle and a more comfortable grip for the user. The pivot section contains a pivot bore through which is placed a pivot pin to pivotally join the pair of main members. The jaw section has a head end and sides. First and second generally rectangular cutouts, are disposed along an inside front edge of head end and laterally through its sides of the jaw sections.
