Dear Paul
     With all this talk about clamps  can I put my 2 cents in and show what I have to offer. The clamps pictured are made in sweden, use by BMW,VOLVO,etc.
They are all stainless steel, have rolled edges and rolled threads so as to not cut into soft hose mat. The threads are rolled at 15degree angle for a locking
in feature.When taking off & on all you see is the indentation where the clamp use to be no cutting in I use them in the cooling systems I sell and they work
very good.

They solve the problem of cutting the soft silicone hose but they 
don't have any way to expand and contract with barb temperature
changes like the Breeze/McMaster Carr constant torque clamps.
They also appear to be 1/2 inch wide and not 5/8th inch wide.
I highly recommend changing to the  Breeze 5/8th wide constant torque 
clamps for aircraft use.
