I purchased the following wort chiller the other day:

It uses plastic tubing with those clamps which screw down to make a seal. The problem is mine doesn't seal. I get leaks from both the input and output lines where it meets the copper. I've tried adjusting the position of the hose, force of the clamp, and position of the clamp with the same results.
Would putting some teflon tape on the copper tubing and clamping over that help? Any other suggestions?
