brake pipe clamp on braided hoses?
 
I have hel hoses all round on my car, just wondering if its ok to use pipe clamps on the hoses, or will I ruin them? Could somebody also reccomend some clamps? Thanks

NO NO NO................

you will seriously compromise the PTFE liner on any braided hose by attempting to clamp them

Ah, the calipers need to come off, so it would be better to just drain the fluid?

Put a bolt and copper washers through the banjo fitting after removing it from the caliper. I would'nt recommend draining the system unless its essential.
