Worm clamp for ear clamp
I was wondering if an ear clamp can be replaced with say a worm clamp. I needed to check a hose connection on my dishwasher and it had an ear clamp on it. I flipped off the one end of it and it let go so I now need to replace that clamp. Ear clamps seem to be such a pain to me as I don't have the pinch tool they need (unless there is hack for that) so I would like to use a worm clamp. Is there an issue with doing that? I'm asking because the manufacturer obviously used the ear clamp there for a reason. Thanks
