Subject: attaching tubing to glass

A step in one of the analyses we do in our lab involves connecting Tygon tubi ng to the end of a glass tube.  We have Kevlar gloves for this purpose, b ut I’ve heard of an additional safety device that can also be used for this purpose —though I can’t find one.  I’ve done the obligatory Google search with no luck.  Has anyone heard of or used anything that reduces the risk o f getting cut while attaching hose/tubing to glass tubes or rods?

Many thanks; I hope everyone has a great weekend!
