Default Hosepipe circumference?

I've bought myself a water butt pump to move water between storage points.
The hosepipe I have is from a Hozelock Compact Enclosed Reel and it's a real
struggle to fit it to the pump outlet. I had to remove the O ring from the
pump to get it to go. In the pump kit there is a piece of piping which
seems to be bigger (larger circumference) than the pipe I have (it runs from
the immersed pump up to the fitment I'm trying to attach to). I've Googled
around trying to find out what pipe circumferences (or should it be diameter
or radius?) exist but I'm not being successful. I'm quite happy to buy a
new piece of hose, I just need to know what to look for. Can anybody help?
