Brake fluid flexi from res to m/cl
JohnN - 4/7/06 at 10:42 PM

Anybody any idea where I can get some brake fluid certified hose to go from remote reservoir to master cylinders, Mr sva didn't like the Cohline stuff I had as it wasn't all labelled up as brake fluid pipe. I can't seem to find anybody that sells such stuff

Thanks JohnN

I dont know of any which are labelled specifically for brake fluid in the same was as petrol hose, but if you can get some Sytec FH013 (available from many retailers - Demon Tweeks and FSE included) it is fully compliant for low pressure fuel and brake fluid.

I bought some stainless braided hose which is in fact FH013 inside, heres the spec sheet if it helps you

Got mine from BGC.
A very nice chap to talk to and the hose came with a spec and test sheet.

What Cohline tube did you use? There are some spec sheets here:

If it's the 3011 Polymide tube for example there is a manufacturer sheet claiming it's brake fluid resistant.

Might be worth calling Mr SVA and checking what DIN numbers/proof he will accept.
