What is the advantage of using stainless steel braided brake hoses?

Stainless steel braided hoses reduce the flex that rubber hoses can experience under pressure. This leads to a firmer pedal feel and more consistent braking performance compared to standard rubber lines.

Are these brake hoses street legal?

No, these competition brake hoses are not DOT approved and are intended for off-road use only. They are designed for custom applications where DOT compliance is not a requirement.

What does '-3 AN' refer to on the hose fittings?

The '-3 AN' designation refers to the size of the fitting. AN (Army-Navy) fittings are a standard used in automotive and aerospace for fluid transfer lines, with '-3' indicating a specific diameter for the hose and fitting.

About this part

Product Details

This 33-inch competition brake hose features a -3 AN fitting on each end, designed for custom brake line setups. The stainless steel construction offers durability, while the zinc-plated hose ends help resist corrosion. These hoses are pre-assembled and ready for your chosen adapter fittings, making them a solid option for building out a custom brake hydraulic system.

Using a stainless steel braided hose like this one helps reduce the flex that can occur in rubber brake lines under pressure. This means less energy is lost when you press the brake pedal, resulting in a firmer pedal feel and more consistent braking performance. Keep in mind these lines are intended for off-road use only and are not DOT approved.
