Pump and fittings needed , please help

[Bald-Eagle22]

Guys I am speccing up my water Kit and need to find a pump


So far I have

Dtek Fusion CPU block with nozzle kit
Thermochill P120.3
3x Yateloonfans D12SM
Danger den Double 5.25 bay ressy
.

Now all the above have half in fittings for hose connections and the pump I am looking at does not list fittings :

Here it is

Laing DDC 12V ULTRA Pump & Plexitop

Dimensions: (WxLxH) 62x62x38mm (without connections)
Motor construction type: electronically commuted ball-motor
Working voltage: 12 V DC Voltage
Admissible voltage area: 6 to 13.2 V
Delivery height: at 12V: 4,7m
Max. delivery rate: 600L/hour
Delivery media: water, water-/glycol compounds
Max. system temperature: 60° C
Medium-affecting parts: stainless steel 1.4571, PPS-GF40, EPDM O-sealing rings, alumina, hard carbon
Connections: 2x 1/4" hose connection


So I have 2 questions for you guys

1.Can i get some 1/2 inch connections for this ? Also is this pump any good ?

2. I have small jubilee clips to secure the hose connections but are they the best way ...I quite like the screw down connectors that tighten up the hose as you screw it down .

I am more than happy to change the whole fittment of the barbd and hoses if 1/2 tubing is no good ?

1/2 Tubing is fine so don't worry about that.
That pump is a little monster, you won't be disappointed!
Jubilee clips are sweet, tried and tested to work, just don't overtighten or you'll put a rip in the hose.

For the pump you need some barbs with a 1/4" thread and 1/2" hose tail.

Thx for that ,, are compression fittings any easier ? Lat time I played with wter kit the jubilee clips were an utter nightmare .

I used compression fittings on my current build (first watercooled PC) and they were awesomely easy to use - I was very impressed They may be reasonably expensive but I had a XSPC X20 kit which came with 6 so I only had to buy 4 more, it's well worth it
