I purchased some 3/16 tubing for my beverage lines from the hardware store, but the issue seems to be finding a small enough clamp to properly fit the small diameter, thinner walled tubing. My thought was to use a decent size ziptie on the lines. Does anyone use zipties or have another method?
thanks

Yes, I had the same issue. I purchased some stainless steel safety wire, and wrapped it tightly around twice, then gave it about 7 twists and cut the "tail". Holding great in my kegerator for about 4-5 months so far. Home Depot/Lowes sells the wire, but it was in a weird spot to find, with miscelaneous stuff for hanging pictures.
