The outlet of the arb is hot enough to de-crimp factory made air hoses. I had to switch the feed hose from the compressor to my tank from a 4ft rubber leader whip style hose like you would have on a tool to an actual stainless steel braided line. Lost two hoses that way, one of which happened as we were trying to reseat the bead on my tire on steel bender at BB. Should have learned after the first hose failure. Nope.
My only saving grace was I put a quick disconnect for the hose connection at the compressor so in the event of my feed hose failing I just could hook up my air hose directly to the compressor without having to change a fitting.
