We use the same fitting on all of our builds without hose clamp. You have to use specific hose with those fittings for it to work correctly . I have been using those same fittings with the correct hose (without hose clamps) for at least 20 yrs and have never had one come off.

Greg, when I put my first car together I used Gates Push-on hose AND fittings. I started the engine and kept the revs low for about 5 minutes. The outside air temp was about 70 and I was using 20W50 as instructed by Jake. Anyway, I revved it up a few times and BLAM one of the hoses blew off the remote oil filter mount. After cleaning up the oil everywhere, I pushed the hose back on and secured it with a WIDE hose clamp. Lesson learned.

What brand do you guys use out of curiosity?
