Hairspray !
I kid you not, or if you have some carpet adhesive - spray on kind.
Or have you distorted the pipe work by over-tightening the clamps ?
Or is there too little hose on the hard pipe itself ?
Or am I waffling ?
You choose !

I will give that a go if you are serious
No distorted pipes, as they are stainless so can do the clamps up nice and tight.
Wonder where I could get carpet adhesive???
Think you are beginning to waffle now
but much appreciate the advice Scooby Senior

We don't have such things as carpet shops where I live, electricity is a new invention round here and that doesnt work most of the time

Too expensive, also no one local will touch it, as that was my original plan

Mikalor if the right sizb are good but often they clamp tight on themselves not the pipe.
Murray clamps as sold by sfs performance are very good.
Use pliers to bend the edge of the pipe out slightly.
Could carpet adhesive be used to stick hair on?
