Looking in to a new air hose for my compressor. I see there are two hose diameter sizes. 1/4'' and 3/8''. Both hose sizes come with 1/4'' npt fittings on both ends. What is the benefit of buying the 3/8'' hose if the air has to go through the restrictive fittings on both ends? Would a 1/4" hose be just as good? If, a 3/8'' hose and a 1/4'' leader was used what would happen?
