Water Cooling Hoses

Looking at a drag chain setup for my Journeyman eventually and was wondering if I should use vinyl or silicone hoses for the coolant lines in the drag chains. Is there a significant difference between the two with regard to continued movement and wear? Any reason to be concerned with one or the other?

Silicone is a lot more flexible and resistant in many ways but a sharp edge will end it. Vinyl is stiffer

Howdy!

I used air line hose from Home Depot. It will last a long time. Here is my post Water Line Locations - #8 by bwcherry
