Spring Hose Clamps?

Not likely to be found at autoparts stores since those clamps haven't really been used for quite some time, and rarely anything over 1/2" to begin with when they were. The last place I've seen them locally was at a industrial supply place, but they sell pretty much any type of hose fitting/clamp made so it would be expected. Really the easiest and cheapest is to get them from ebay, you can usually get a small bulk pack of 10 or so for a couple bucks.

look under spring type. careful they are rated by OD. Kinda plain looking so maybe not nice enoough but /shrug . Take a look at the low pressure ones as well. I used the high pressure ones on a project and they are a major bitch to get off and on, pliers are absolutely required.

they have some interesting ones under band clamps as well.

They dont mind small orders over the phone and check the locations for the closest one to you.
 
i think you could find some like this at most hardware stores. theyre about $.50 eaach for 1/2" ID. i ended up returning some that i bought because they were way too stiff. i had to use pliers to get them open, and even then i couldnt get them open enough to fit over my 3/4" OD tubing. i might look for a size bigger sometime and try those, but mainly i got those ones because they were plated red and looked really good.
