Fashioning a heat sink for a DC motor

Assuming one has a fairly straight approx 4.5" OD x 10" long round

sink type of deal ?
I am thinking about
A) getting say 3/8 or 1/2 alum channel, cutting it into pieces the
length of the motor and attaching the "strips" flat bottom toward the
motor around the circumference. 3-4 zip-ties holding the Us against
the motor
If cable ties are good enough for this project, how about using a small
fan for cooling?
A stainless steel hose clamp won't get brittle and fall off like cable
ties.
