S/S Braided Brake Hoses

Recommended Posts

Been digging around and have found what should end all the confusion around braided lines and the such.

Although this was released in 2007 it is still current, I have rung and confirmed this with the LVVTA today.

If the below requirements are met, they will pass a WoF and do not require a Cert even without any markings or tags.

LVVTA_Info_04_2007_Stainless_Steel_Braided_Brake_Hoses.pdf

A vehicle owner may have stainless steel braided brake hoses fitted to his vehicle, that do not have any standard makings on them, provided that they are clearly purpose-built automotive brake hoses, and that the end fittings are permanently attached to the hose by way of crimping or swaging.

Under WoF Reasons for rejection:

17 "A flexible hydraulic brake hose (including connections)...(g) has an end fitting that is not attached to the hose by means of swaging, crimping or a similar process (Note 3)

Note 3 states "Hose ends that can be undone using hand tools are unacceptable."
