Just a FYI, the beauty of the 7/16" ID tubing is that it easily slips over 1/2" OD barbs for a snug fit that doesn't require clamping.

The tubing that I use, and recommend, is this one:

Item No: 54047

Really good stuff. Much easier to work with than 1/2" ID tubing, slips over 1/2" OD fittings as noted, bends tighter radii without kinking and with MUCH less effort, does not sacrifice flow-rates if using less than 3 metere of it when slipped over 1/2" OD barbs, and is slimmer and neater looking.
