Are different brands of V band clamps compatitable?

[SVT-DADDY]

Had a set of Mak cat deletes installed last fall. We used V band clamps so I can switch the cats back and forth as needed. On the day of the job we got the cat deletes on and ran out of time. Before I got back to have the job finished, my old cats, extra flanges, and V band clamps were "stolen".

I secured another set of cats, and need another set of V Bands. My concern is that one side of the V band is attached to the resonators and the other half with likely be a different brand.

Will 2 different brand V band clamps match up correctly?

Thanks!

Maybe, but not likely. Some like vibrant have a male and female side with a little lip to line them up. Others like summit brand are not the exact same diameter and thickness.
