Flexible Rubber Brake Hoses
Kodiak brake hoses are made of rubber, making them a practical choice for a variety of applications. Because you can easily bend them, rubber hoses are simpler to work with than rigid stainless steel brake lines. This flexibility makes rubber hoses great for use with foldaway trailer tongues because they are less likely to kink or break when bent. In addition, rubber hoses allow for a wide range of motion so articulating parts can effectively function. These qualities make rubber hoses better suited than steel lines for trailers with torsion axle suspension systems and trailers that have disc brakes.
Stainless steel brake lines have braided exteriors, which can not only wear against exterior surfaces, but also against the interior lining of the hose if dirt gets underneath the steel braid. And if the braid on a stainless steel line tears, it can cut into the hose lining. The exterior surface of these hoses is solid rubber, so there are no crevices for debris to enter.
Durable Fittings with Deep Threads
Kodiak brake hoses have corrosion-resistant brass fittings with stainless steel flares. These fittings have a gap built into them that allows room for a line wrench - also called a flare nut wrench - to slide over the line and down to the nut. This type of wrench grips the nut better than a standard open-ended wrench so there is less chance of stripping the threads as you tighten down the nut.
The stainless steel that is used to create the flares on these hoses is stronger than brass. As a result, these fittings are more durable than ones made entirely of brass. The stainless flares are primarily designed to keep the fittings from splitting when you tighten them down, but they offer absolute rust protection as well.
Kodiak's fittings have deeper threads than many other fittings on the market to provide a higher thread engagement. Deeper threads offer an advantage when used with fittings that have the same thread depth. These Kodiak fittings will work with most fittings on the market, but when they're used with other Kodiak fittings, the result is a stronger connection with fewer leaks.

Today we're going to take a look at the Kodiak 20-Foot Tandem Axle Hydraulic Brake Line Kit. Now these brake hoses and fittings will let you run brake fluid from your surge brake actuator to your trail brakes. This kit here is designed for use on tandem axle trailers with drum or disc brakes. The flexible design of these hoses makes it perfect for use with foldaway trailer tongues, disc brakes, and torsion axles. The rubber hoses do meet the DOT, Department of Transportation, and SAE standards and they are a lot easier to install than the rigid steel lines. This kit includes everything shown here on the table. One 20-foot long flexible brake line, two 7-foot long flexible brake lines, one 3-1/2-foot long flexible brake line and two 1-1/2-foot long flexible brake lines.
Also one cross fitting, one Tee fitting and then 20 half-inch loom clamps to attach your hoses to your trailer. Now, the brass male swivel flare nut fittings on the ends of each hose have the nice deep threads to them. Those deep threads will improve the connection to help prevent any leaks. The swivel will allow the flare fittings to turn without the hose twisting. If you'll notice on the hose itself, the stainless steel flare here, this will help resist corrosion and it's stronger than the brass to help reduce any splitting. When you go to screw this in, you'll notice there's an open area here on the flare fittings.
This will let you use a line wrench in there for better grip so it minimizes the risk of stripping any threads. If you'll notice right here, they use a double crimp brass farrow 00:01:27 that will securely clamp the fittings to the hose. Now, these fittings right here, these are corrosion resistant brass fittings that will connect all your hydraulic lines to your brake system. They do use the female inverted flares at each port and we did mention the loom clamps. They're heavy-duty loom clamps that will secure the hoses to your trailer's frame. A few specs on this.
The hose's inner diameter is 1/8 of an inch. The fitting size is 3/16 of an inch, thread size is 3/8 of an inch by 24. That should do it for the review on the Kodiak 20-Foot Tandem Axle Hydraulic Brake Line Kit.

I put these Kodiak brakes on a year ago. They have preformed fawlessly for me. They have indeed saved my brakes on my truck and prevented a couple accidents do to sudden braking. A must have. 676598
This is a complete kit. Every thing is there and its simple to install. It maybe to 30 minutes to install. I opted for using zipties to hold it in place because i didn't want any new holes in my trailer frame. 664991
Purchased new brakes and brake lines for my boat trailer. I made an error in my order and Katie was very responsive on making it right. Quick delivery and no border challenges on way to Canada. I will definitely make trailer my first stop in the future. 616139
Good product and easy to install. Mounting clamps/c-clips were missing upon delivery. Etrailer made it right and sent out replacement clips. Installation was a breeze. 516971
Fast, simple way to replace brake lines on a trailer. Easier than steel lines! 401154
Shipped fast and arrived in perfect condition. Nice quality and installation looks to be straightforward. 380848
Well worth the price, have had these for 1 year. No signs of rust or deterioration. My old brake lines rusted away in 2.5 years. Trailer only goes in salt water. Highly recommend these brake lines. Very easy to install 361158
The products were ordered on Sunday night late, delivered by Wednesday. Converting drum surge brakes to disc, electric over hydraulic on a boat trailer for 26ft Sea Ray boat. I had everything including Titan brake actuator, 4 kodiac rotor and caliper conversion kits with bearings, and new lines installed by Thursday evening. Installation was straight forward, everything fit perfectly. One of the calipers was malfunctioning (not releasing). I called customer service and I had a new one within two days, it's now installed and working great!! Great product! Awesome service!! Lines all fit great!! Seem to be very high quality!! 338162
Stripping down a 16 year old 21 ft. salt water use trailer - from end to end. The folks @ etrailer were very knowledgeable, and helpful in my decision making. From placing the order, to tracking the order, to the way the items were packed for transit. Other distributors could learn from these people; in regards to customer service, following up, both office and warehouse. Unloaded the products last night, nothing short, all quality in regards to their products, with great pricing. The installation videos are a big bonus, and something I'll be taking advantage of, during the restoration. Will follow up with picture, (before and after) when I'm done 337534
so far all in the box looks good came well packed which is refreshing don't have time at moment to install but all look correct thanks 325054
The kit install went smoothly because everything fit the way it should. The instructions were accurate and the torque values included helped make it tight. Much better braking experience than just electric brakes. I took my time replacing all the wheel/hub assemblies but the effort paid off. I highly recommend the Kodiak kit. 306918
Ive put about 9,000 miles on the 5th wheel since converting to the hydraulic disc brakes and Im so much more confident in the handling and performance of the brakes and suspension. It was not the easiest job to do but I took my time and did it right so I know I set everything up correctly. Now I have real stopping power, no fade. Good products, durable and built to last. Thanks, Brian
Brian G - 10/17/2017Hi, just thought I'd let you know how happy I am with my order. The quality is excellent, and the packaging was far better than anything else I've ordered online. In fact I liked it so much I ordered another product from you today. Thanks so much. Rick 297432
It's always great doing business with etrailer. All the best products and great service too. The Kodiak brake line kit is better than what came on the trailer from the original manufacturer. 297095
I purchased this as I had an older trailer and adding brakes to the second axle. This was a super easy set up over using steel! Zero frustration laying it out and easy to install. Great system 267072
So far, good. I installed this on my trailer yesterday, and it works well. Hoses are all of adequate length, and the machined parts are made with excellent precision. Nothing had to be altered to fit together. 262311
Just finished putting the item on the trailer then had to order a new wheel cylinder thanks. E trailer for good quality products 229123
