Stainless Steel Braided Brake Hose

Stainless Steel Braided Brake Lines are flexible hoses fitted to a hydraulic brake system. The intent of stainless steel braided brake lines is to improve brake system effectiveness and longevity as compared to an equivalent system fitted with flexible rubber hoses through near-elimination of hose expansion.
The difference in expansion characteristics between rubber and braided stainless steel brake lines is a result of differences in hose construction. Where rubber hoses typically consist of a rubber inner hose wrapped in a textile reinforcement braid then covered in an additional rubber outer sheath, stainless steel braided hoses typically consist of a Teflon or generic PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) inner hose wrapped in a braid consist of stainless steel wire. The stainless wire braid more effectively resists expansion due to pressure inside the hose core. This in effect improves brake system effectiveness by more direct transferring operator input to brake friction surfaces. While available without a coating, the stainless braid typically coated with a clear or colored material such as PVC (polyvinyl chloride) to protect the wire and inner hose from the elements and chemicals, to protect the vehicle or machine from abrasion, and for an improved appearance. Coated stainless steel braided hoses have the same essential construction as rubber hoses in terms of an inner hose wrapped in a braid followed by an outer layer, but the different materials in the stainless steel braided hoses offer substantially different and arguably better characteristics.
Benefit of fitting stainless steel brake hoses:
-Eliminate spongy brake pedal feel
-Greater braking efficiency
-Balance braking force between front & rear brake
-Prevent jerking while braking
-Safer brake system

The best 'investment' you can ever make to improve your brake system,
thus, improve the safety of your car!
