Braided Hose & Fittings

Braided hoses and fittings for braking systems in performance cars and motorsport vehicles are critical for enhancing braking efficiency and reliability. These hoses are constructed from stainless steel braiding over a Teflon inner lining, providing superior strength and flexibility compared to standard rubber hoses.

Technically, the stainless steel braiding prevents the hoses from expanding under high pressure, maintaining consistent hydraulic pressure and improving brake response. The Teflon lining ensures chemical resistance and durability, preventing degradation from brake fluid. High-quality fittings, often made from anodised aluminium or stainless steel, ensure secure, leak-free connections and withstand the harsh conditions of motorsport.

The benefits of using braided hoses and fittings include improved braking performance, enhanced safety, and better pedal feel. The reduced expansion of the braided hoses leads to a more immediate and firm brake response, crucial for high-speed driving and racing. Additionally, the durability of these components reduces the risk of failure and maintenance frequency, ensuring reliable performance under extreme conditions. Regular inspection and maintenance are essential to maintain optimal braking efficiency and safety in high-performance applications.
