Why Install Braided Brake Lines?
Braided Brake line kits offer a simply and effective method to eliminate that 'spongy' feeling often found with rubber hoses under extreme braking conditions - the time when performance is needed the most. By replacing the original rubber hoses with our complete system you will remove this sponginess and your braking will deliver new levels of precision. On top of the performance benefit, HEL Performance braided brake lines will last significantly longer than OEM rubber-type hoses and offer a lifetime warranty to back it up. Additionally, HEL Performance brake lines are available in a number of colours and options to add a subtle yet noticeable improvement to the looks of your car.
Why Choose HEL Performance?
HEL Performance is the only UK company of its kind to design and manufacture its entire range of mainline stainless steel high-performance brake line fittings in-house, using Star Sliding Head CNC machines. HEL Performance brake lines are assembled with a PTFE inner tube, wrapped with a 304 Stainless Steel braided which is then protected with a PVC outer layer to offer additional protecting, easy cleaning and eye-catching looks. HEL Performance were the first to offer this PVC coating instead of a traditional heatshrink finish. Don't risk using inferior brake lines when you can trust us to improve braking reliability and performance - We use stainless steel in our lines and our fittings. Most competitors use zinc plated fittings which are at risk from corrosion.
HEL Performance brake lines are a like for like replacement for the standard flexible brake hoses on your vehicle unless specified otherwise. Should you find a kit isn't properly suited to your vehicle we will happily work with you to modify or replace your hoses.
