What are brake hoses?
What is a brake hose and what does it do? Manufactured from either rubber or stainless steel, brake hoses are used to deliver braking force to the brake pads via hydraulic pressure and brake fluid. It is important for brake hoses to be flexible to enable the driver to steer and brake effectively, as well as manoeuvre over and around obstacles.

When replacing your brake lines, the replacement brake hose assembly does not need to look exactly the same as the original brake line, but make sure that the brake lines (especially the new brake hose fittings) will fit the surrounding area where they will be installed. Sometimes the brake hose fitting can interfere with another part of your brakes. Pay attention to any tight spots when removing your brake lines and communicate any restrictions to the vendor who will be fabricating your replacement brake lines.
