I had tried some electrical tape on a poorly fitting hose a few years back but the adhesive slowly melted over the course of a few months ruining both of the hoses. Based on that experience I wouldn’t personally recommend that solution.

How about a few wraps of self amalgamating tape rather than electrical tape then there is no adhesive involved
