Seems obvious but I've never thought about this stuff since I got my first compressor a long time ago.
Material - I can google this but rubber or hybrid or pcv ?

My guess is bigger is better. Air tools require volume which a larger diameter hose should provide.

Thanks. I forget what hose I went with, I think rubber as it's more cold friendly.
I went with some Milton V style or something fittings that have considerably larger internal ID's and flow a lot more air. They're apparently a substantial improvement over nominal fittings even if the hose diameter stays the same.
