Flexible Rubber Brake Hose
This Kodiak brake hose is made of rubber, making it a practical choice for a variety of applications. Because you can easily bend it, a rubber hose is simpler to work with than a rigid stainless steel brake line. This flexibility makes a rubber hose great for use with foldaway trailer tongues because it is 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 this hose 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 this hose 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.

hydraulic hose has been in use over a year now. flare connections and hose are good quality . no leaks
robert s - 07/02/2021I went to two of the three auto parts stores in our little town thinking that a plain brake hose could be had. Turns out that brake hoses these days are all model specific and the clerks politely refused to help me without a part or model #. So I searched the internet and finally found exactly what I wanted here at etrailer. Not only that but the price was very fair and shipping cost was surprisingly low. Delivery was prompt and the after sale follow up from the folks at etrailer gives me chuckle...I ain't never seen this kind of "takin' care of business" for a little $26 order like mine was. This e-business is a "favorite".

Very well made and exactly as shown. Quick shipping and I will order again if the need arises. Thanks eTrailer!!

Great replacement for my boat trailer disc brake line. Much, much more durable than the OEM line.
Very well designed hose. The short stainless tube connectors on either end are easier to connect than a hose that terminates with brass fitting alone.
Product arrived and was exactly as ordered. Shipping was fairly quick even using the base shipping method.
think gonna work perfect for disk brake conversion on my trike.thanks
