METAL HOSES

Metal brake hoses to improve your bike's braking at BeRacing1

At BeRacing1, we offer a wide range of metal brake hoses designed to significantly improve your bike's braking system. Manufactured from high strength and durable materials, our hoses provide a more precise and efficient braking response compared to traditional rubber hoses.

The importance of metal hoses

Improved braking: Metal hoses offer greater resistance to expansion under pressure, resulting in faster and more consistent braking response.

Durability: Made of braided stainless steel or other tough materials, metal hoses are more durable and less prone to wear than conventional rubber hoses.

Safety: They provide greater reliability and stability during braking, reducing the risk of brake system failure.

Features and benefits of our metal brake hoses

High quality materials: We use high quality braided stainless steel which offers superior corrosion resistance and durability.

Flexibility and strength: The hoses are designed to provide flexibility without compromising pressure resistance, improving braking efficiency.

Universal Compatibility: Available for a wide variety of motorbike makes and models, ensuring a perfect fit and easy installation.

Increased sensitivity: Improves brake sensitivity, providing a more precise and controlled response from the braking system.

Reduced wear: Minimises wear on brake system components, extending the life of brake pads and discs.

Improved performance in extreme conditions: Ideal for aggressive or high performance driving conditions where efficient and consistent braking is required.

Featured brands: Such as Goodridge, renowned for innovation and quality in metal brake lines for racing and street bikes, or Hel Performance, known for its commitment to manufacturing high performance brake lines that meet safety and reliability standards.

Easy installation and regular maintenance: Installation by an experienced mechanic is recommended to ensure a correct and secure fit. Periodically inspect hoses for signs of wear or deterioration and replace as necessary to maintain optimum safety and performance.

Operation of metal hoses

The operation of metal hoses on motorbikes is primarily focused on their ability to effectively transmit braking pressure from the actuation system (brake pedal or lever) to the brake components (usually the calipers that press the brake pads against the brake disc). Here is a detailed explanation of how they work:

Pressure transmission: When pressure is applied to the brake pedal or brake lever, this pressure is transmitted through the brake fluid contained within the metal brake hose. Unlike rubber hoses, which can expand under pressure (causing loss of brake pressure and sensitivity), metal hoses retain their shape and rigidity. This allows a direct and precise transmission of the applied pressure, improving the response of the braking system.

Controlled flexibility: Despite being made of metal, the metal hoses are flexible enough to allow for the movement and flexing required during normal motorbike operation. This controlled flexibility ensures that the hoses can properly conform to the brake system and motorbike geometry without compromising strength and performance.
