Does the Dexter Hydraulic Brake Line # T0777100 Have Free Spinning Fittings on the Ends?

Question:
If u hold the rubber hose, do the fittings on the ends turn to tighten to the male fittings on my trailer without spinning the entire hose? OR does the entire hose have to be turned to connect to male fittings thanks

Hello Rick,
Great question. I was unsure of the answer so I took a stroll out the warehouse, the fittings on the end of the Dexter Hydraulic Brake Line with Fittings # T0777100 are not free spinning. So you would need to move the entire hose.
If you have any other questions about any of the other hoses please let me know. What kind of trailer are you working on?
