Default Very fine hose clips?

Hi all,

I have used some very fine, stainless steel, Jubilee style 'worm drive
hose clamp' on smaller hoses (~10mm OD) but can't seem to find them
again? ;-(

I have access to plenty of different type of hose clamp but most have
large flanges and / or bolts sticking out and are much heavier (in
construction) than would be needed for this role (motorcycle fuel
hoses). Std clips are about 9mm wide, what I am looking for were more
like 3-4 mm?

The bike typically came with the little wire clip with overlapping
loops at the ends but they don't hold quite as well as a more positive
acting clip and they do need to be removed now and again.

Any pointers to where I can get the smaller Jubilee style clips /
clamps please ... or an effective alternative?

Cheers, T i m
