Take advantage of our RacingLine aviation brake line kit for Audi S3 8V TT 8S / Golf 7 7.5 GTI R / Leon 3 Cupra 5F
The aviation sheathing provides better protection for the rubber hose thanks to the metal braiding that surrounds it, and limits its deformation during braking. RacingLine aviation hose kits therefore provide braking with a more direct feel to the pedal.
Advantages and disadvantages of using an aviation hose
The inconvenients
The aviation hose can be blamed for its sometimes very high cost. To remedy this, we offer you an alternative: make your own aviation hose.
It presents a form of incompatibility with the ABS system, as we explain in Durite Aviation et ABS?
Advantages
The 'avia hose' is made to take very varied shapes and sizes, of different diameters, incorporate flow restrictors inside or 'calibers', purge plugs outside its circuit etc...
Reminder: It is maintained and sealed by two ends of factory-assembled metal fittings, which are most often screwed onto the parts to be connected (more details: composition of the aviation hose). It is tightened using screws called banjos. The tightness and resistance of the assembly are therefore dependent on the good condition of the overall fixing and braking system on which the device will be based.
various aviation hoses
The assembly of aviation hose allows to offer as advantages:
- a gain in braking power,
- to avoid losses due to the expansion of the hose,
- better bite of the brake pads and caliper.
- under heavy braking, the temperature of the brake fluid rises, causing the pressure in the brake hose to rise. The aviation hose will have the advantage over the standard hose of not expanding under these conditions and thus ensuring reliable, precise and efficient braking.
