Rubber vs stainless steel braided brake hoses

Initially, most vehicles are equipped with a rubber brake hose. At first, the rubber hoses are satisfactory. But it doesn’t take long for them to wear down and lose their braking strength. Soon, the brakes feel spongey and unreliable.

Do away with low-quality rubber hoses by installing a stainless steel braided brake hose from Classic Tube. Whether you’re building a custom system or simply replacing a damaged brake hose, stainless steel is a significant upgrade for your vehicle.

Classic Tube’s stainless steel braided brake hoses ensure that there will be no volumetric expansion, and provide drivers with a powerful braking experience for years to come, unlike rubber hoses that begin to expand and deteriorate in such a short time.


If you’re looking for a serious upgrade on your brake hoses, consider the StopFlex brake hose. With a special three-layer design only available through Classic Tube, you can be sure your new stainless steel braided brake hose will keep you safe and your vehicle in tip-top shape.
