Overview
The 4,000 mm stainless steel braided brake hose (EBS.BL.4000) features a PTFE (Teflon®) inner liner surrounded by a stainless steel braid for minimal expansion, high corrosion resistance, and strong brake response. Comes complete with pre-flared 3/8″ UNF inverted-flare brass fittings — no onsite flaring tools required.
Fully compliant with SAE J1401 and U.S. DOT standards, this hose is ideal for long hydraulic brake runs on tandem or tri‑axle trailers, RVs, boat trailers, and heavy-duty builds.

🚚 Applications
Perfect for:
-
Trailer brake plumbing with long internal routing (up to 3.5 m)
-
Tandem or tri‑axle trailers, campers, and boats
-
Replacing longer rubber or copper lines where flexibility and corrosion protection are needed
✅ Why Choose This Hose?
Braided stainless steel hoses with PTFE cores offer superior performance over rubber hoses—they reduce expansion, improve pedal feel, and resist environmental damage. The 3.5 m length accommodates complex chassis routing without compromising brake effectiveness or certification compliance.
⚙️ Installation Tips
-
Secure line to chassis using stainless P‑clips—protect against chafing
-
Maintain gentle curves; avoid tight bends near suspension interfaces
-
Hand-tighten fittings before torqueing; avoid twisting hose
-
Bleed the brake system thoroughly after installation to ensure air-free hydraulics
