That will work for the larger diameter outer clamps. The inners I believe are the ear type clamps, which require a different tool... Your other option is to use stainless steel hose clamps on the inners.
That tool might work, sort of. The end nippers the other fellow mentioned would be a far better bet and also work pretty well as end nippers.
Inner and outer clamps take the same tool.
The correct tool has 3 moving parts. The two outer jaws crimp together and the center plate pushes out to flatten the crimp. The resultant crimp from this type of tool will better resist becoming un-crimped.
Why not do it the easy way and use hose clamps instead, they work the same and you dont have to deal with one time use clamps...
