Collars for hanging air hose

[Southlogan]

I'm setting up a tool balancer for an air gun (first time I've done this). The gun doesn't have any eyelets or other ways of attaching the cable from the balancer, so I was hoping to find a collar that I could put on the hose (1/4" hose) that would also have a hole where I could attach the cable with a small carabiner. After a couple of hours of searching, I'm scratching my head wondering, "Hasn't anybody in the history of the world needed something like this?" There are obviously different types of clamps, but none of them (that I can find) accommodate a connection other a screw or bolt that is the tightening mechanism.

I think I'm looking for something like this, but sized for a 1/4" air hose.

Anyone know of anything like this? Am I just doing it all wrong?

I'd use the connector you found. Spiral slit a 6" section of scrap air hose that fits around the 1/4" hose, tape it on and clamp to that. You'll want a strain relief around your clamp.

Most of the ones that I've seen are nothing more than a "L" bracket drilled to just slip over the air fitting before being screwed to the gun, and then a hole for a clip to the balancer line.

That makes total sense. Thanks.

Much cleaner solution than what I was thinking.

They make clamps simular to that for mountion fuel, air, wire loom to frames and body components,some totally
enclapsated in rubber or plastic in the wiring section at parts stores

could also use a washer drilled or link of chain welded to it
