I always carry short lengths of various sized PVC pipe & hose clamps so that if a hose breaks I can cut it at the break, insert a
piece of pipe and clamp it for a temporary fix.

I have a "Food Saver" that vacuum packs things in plastic.  Any spare parts that I do carry (or keep on the shelf for that matter)
are vacuum sealed to prevent corrosion until needed.
