An integrated fluid conduction system or hose assembly comprising a hose, a clamp, and a coupling device wherein the hose includes an external surface and a projection, with an orifice, extending from the external surface. The clamp includes an opening to receive the projection. The coupling device

An integrated fluid conduction system or hose assembly comprising a hose, a clamp, and a coupling device wherein the hose includes an external surface and a projection, with an orifice, extending from the external surface. The clamp includes an opening to receive the projection. The coupling device includes a compression section and a leg for coupling, fixing and positioning the projection orifices so that the compression section engages the clamp external surface so as to retain and stabilize the clamp to the hose. The invention is further directed to a coupling device as generally described above as well as to a method for coupling a clamp to a hose with the coupling device including the steps of positioning the clamp on the hose by disposing the projections into the clamp opening and attaching the coupling device to the hose, including placing the legs of the coupling device into the projection orifices, to couple the clamp to the hose.
