Brake Hose Types and Advantages | Flexible Pipe Solutions

Brakes used in high-performance racing and activities that put an automobile through rigorous mechanically-demanding work require PTFE brake lines that are made to perform exceptionally under high temperatures. In race cars, heavy-duty, or off-road vehicles used in the mountains that experience severe g-force braking activities, the temperature of the brakes undergo extreme pre-heating. Brakes of this magnitude demand unparalleled performance. PTFE possesses phenomenal heat preservation, maintaining structural integrity at elevated temperatures, which means that under such conditions, these brake lines are able to perform as intended. High temperature PTFE brake lines stop brake fade, which is the perceived lack of braking power caused by the overheating of the brake fluid rendering it unable to be effectively utilized. Due to the design possessing a low coefficient of friction, an effortless transfer of brake fluid is guaranteed. Proper fitting and bleeding of the brake system is required to achieve these results and optimal performance out the PTFE brake lines.
