i dont use any protectors.rectus 26 connectors last ages even when getting dragged along the floor and when they jam up get sprayed with WD40 and they last another couple of months! :)
price higher/work harder!

Kno alot on here would say waste of time. But personally I swear by them. I put a pouch on with belt. Hanging on belt is 2 holsters, with stud fasteners.
I work residential, and have rows of houses on both sides of road, so im not in and out van all day! So I run hose thru holster and use a switch valve. Advantage no snagging n unclipping any fasteners. No tripping over hose as It's kept behind you. In pouch keep a rag, so pperiodically can wipe pole hose so not dragging sludge up into poles. Also a very quick way to turn water off, freeing hands to adjust pole lengths without wasting water. Compared to pinching pipe

Hopefully this should show a picture of me wearing a belt and holster where tap is by my side and hose pipe around my waist to second holster. Which then leaves hose trailing behind me and my pole hose infront of me which i can then just hold. As the rectus fitting is on pole hose, it clips onto the tap and not dragging on floor. As you may have assume on previous pic.
