Great idea. I wonder how long the hyd hose lasts with that hot air
going through it.

Mine has lasted 14 years without maintenance.

"Hot" air? My compressor is inter-cooled, and has a large storage tank.
The air leaving - even at full capacity - is only about 30F above ambient.

Intercooler good.


How long do hydraulic hoses last with "cold" hydraulic fluid running
through them (150F or better)?

I wonder if there's a difference in lifetimes.
