I bought a new set of hoses for my welding truck this summer around July.
They are always in the weather and in the sun.
Now, the hoses are starting to leak because of dry rot.
What do you mobile rig runners use to keep your hoses from rotting away?
I'm also concerned that the brass Victor gauges are going to tarnish excessively or that the rubber diaphrams inside them will dry rot. I've got a 1-year old Victor O2 gauge that has started making a squal whenever the oxygen is flowing through it.
Any ideas? Putting a big canvas bag over my equipment is working for now, but I have to uncover it at each use, recover when I'm done, and the tarp is just ugly.
