luckily, the air that is in the tanks is extremely dry and clean (at least we hope so), and that, in itself keeps the hoses from wearing from the inside out...

is it possible, sure - everything breaks down over time...

but it's definitely not like an air hose at a car repair shop - they have a life span of about a year due to moisture and oil in the lines...

if they are visibly dirty inside, I'd replace them, never can be too safe...
