If you want to make connections to a hard plastic tube, I suggest that you use a swaged connector. (See my previous post from yesterday). IMO(based upon building several water cooled motors, vacuum pumps and lab instruments) these are much more reliable that any hose clamp. McMaster Carr (www.mcmaster.com) sells these connections - the inexpensive brass will work nicely.
