What material are the connections of the motorcycle steel braided hoses made of?
Our fittings for motorcycle hoses are available in coloured anodized aluminium and stainless steel. Some fittings are only available in stainless steel.
We always recommend using stainless steel for motorcycle steel braided hoses, as this material offers greater strength and better weather resistance. This ensures that the lines function optimally under all conditions.
Do individually configured hoses have an expert opinion?
Yes, our custom-made steel braided probrake hoses are supplied with a certificate.
After installation, the motorcycle must be presented to a test center to have the hoses registered. Clutch lines are generally exempt from this registration.
Please note that these regulations apply to Germany and may differ internationally.
Is it possible to turn the connections of the steel braided hoses?
Our twist system enables flexible installation, as the connections can be rotated 360 degrees.
You can find more information in our installation instructions.
How do I determine the correct length of the steel braided hoses?
To determine the correct length of the steel flex lines, the measurement for ring fittings is taken from the center of the hole to the center of the hole.
For screw connections, the total length is measured up to the end of the thread.
Further information on hose lengths can be found here.
