ABSTRACT A hose clamp for supporting a vertically extending control line or hose from a position above water to subsea equipment below the water from a vertically extending vertical support such as a wire cable. The clamp includes two semi-circular bodies pivotally connected at one side and having coacting locking means at their second sides for encircling the hose. The interior of the body includes a plurality of projections, preferably a plurality of vertically spaced circular rows of arcuate projections. The hose includes matching and coacting recesses on the exterior of the hose for mating with the projections on the body when the clamp is locked on the hose. Preferably, the recesses are formed by placing a heated clamp mold around the hose having heated projections similar to the projections on the body which will form the recesses by melting the exterior of the hose. Connecting means for securing the bodies to the wire cable may include three J-shaped hooks which are pivotally connected about the body pivot at one side of the bodies. Two of the hooks are connected to one of the halves and face in the same direction. The third hook is connected to the other half and faces in the opposite direction to the two hooks and is positioned between the two hooks.
