Yeah, even cheaper (a buck or two) but he already rejected them due to
the flow restriction.

Alvin, by referring to Google as stupid and retarded, you are
upgrading its actual social value.

I have a device similar to what you want, but on a much
smaller scale for thin wall 3/8" tubing. You can see one at
www.snipurl.com/1rl8m
Note: the first character is the number one and the third
character is a lower case L.

The catalog to which I've referred is for homebrewers and
they call it a "hose clamp". They may be able to refer
you to the manufacturer.

Um there may be a small case of operator error.
IF you would have typed your question without the quotes you would have
gotten "about 154,000" hits.
Google is a computer program not a person. For customized answers
simply ask in this group.

The word order and the word "your" you led google astray.

The search term "stop hose kinking" works perfectly.

Seems to me Google is displaying quite a bit of understanding
of the search terms. The word "your" makes no sense in the
query. Also the word order isn't good. "stop kinking hose"
doesn't work well either.

Would this help using Google search on 'garden hose valve'.
