![]() That looks like the spiral wound filler hose. If it is you will need to wrap a piece of rubber round it then put the clamp on that because the clip rides on the wire support in the tube and fails to clamp the hose itself.

![]() Use a mikalor (spelling?) clamp, i always used these on my turbo cars for boost pipes
They have a larger surface clamping area and tighten up way way more than a humble jubilee clip |

![]() I think you are spot on there robo. Ive got similar stuff on my pond pump and filters and its a pig to stop leaking without almost cracking jubilee clips by overtightening
