Brake lines and hoses

Complete Range of Brake Lines & Hoses for All Vehicles

Brake lines and hoses are essential components of a vehicle’s hydraulic braking system. They transport brake fluid under pressure from the master cylinder to the calipers and wheel cylinders. At A-Z Motor Factors Halifax, we supply OE-quality brake pipes and flexible hoses designed for long-lasting performance and safe, reliable braking.

Brake Lines vs Brake Hoses – What’s the Difference?

Your vehicle uses two main types of hydraulic connections:

✔ Brake Lines (Rigid Pipes)

Usually made from steel, copper, or copper-nickel (Kunifer), brake lines run the length of the vehicle and carry fluid under high pressure. They provide structural strength and corrosion resistance.

✔ Brake Hoses (Flexi Hoses)

Flexible rubber or braided hoses that connect moving suspension components to the hard brake lines. They withstand constant motion and pressure changes.

Together, these parts form the hydraulic network that activates the brakes every time you press the pedal.

Signs Your Brake Lines or Hoses Need Replacing

Replace brake lines or hoses immediately if you notice:

• Brake fluid leaks

• Cracked, swollen or perished hoses

• Rusted or corroded brake pipes

• Soft or spongy brake pedal

• Reduced braking power

• MOT failure for hydraulic leaks or hose damage

• ABS/Brake warning lights

Hydraulic issues are safety-critical and should never be ignored.

Types of Brake Lines & Hoses We Supply

We stock a wide range of brake system components, including:

• Front & rear flexi hoses

• ABS-compatible hoses

• Copper and copper-nickel brake pipe

• Pre-flared brake pipe kits

• Custom-cut brake pipes

• Brake line unions, connectors and fittings

• Full brake line replacement kits

All parts meet OE standards for pressure tolerance and durability.

Why Replace Brake Lines and Hoses Together?

Brake lines and hoses often age at similar rates. Replacing them as a set helps ensure:

• Balanced hydraulic pressure

• Strong, responsive braking

• Better pedal feel

• Reduced risk of future leaks

• Easier MOT compliance

• Longer system lifespan

A complete replacement is recommended during major brake overhauls.
