Default Good quality vacuum hoses

Is there any MADE IN THE U.S.A. vacuum hose available? While we are at it, what about heater hoses?

I have hoses that are 50 years old and still in good shape. I pick up a piece of vac hose or a vac cap at O'Reilly's and it splits, cracks and falls apart in a few weeks or months. Heaven forbid it gets exposed to direct sunlight for more than a nano second!!!\


I will say, I have had better luck buying brand X silicone hoses. But regular black rubber products? Forget it.

I bought some 50’ spools recently from Denco Distributing. Their part numbers seem to match these on eBay as well. Maybe the same supplier?
