Guys just out of curiosity, what are you wrapping your hydro hoses with to keep them together and keep from getting snagged on stuff?

Nylon hose protector sleeve works good. It is a mesh that comes in different sizes and you slide your hose through it. To keep hoses together, use zip ties in several places.

Nylon sleeve, or spiral wrap.

Some folks have found that routing hydro-hoses through 'old' (discarded) woven fire-hoses to be an inexpensive and effective way to 'armor' and contain them.

Fire departments must replace their hoses on a regular cadence so 'old' hoses are plentiful.
