Construction & Design
Each Goodridge brake or clutch hose kit features a high-quality PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) inner liner, which is chemically inert and resistant to brake fluid degradation. This ensures consistent hydraulic pressure and prevents hose swelling or expansion that can cause pedal softness. Surrounding the PTFE liner is a tightly woven stainless steel braid that provides exceptional mechanical strength and protection against external damage.
The stainless steel braid also offers excellent resistance to heat and corrosion, making these hoses suitable for both street and performance driving environments. Precision-engineered fittings and crimps guarantee leak-free connections and long-term durability. The combination of materials and design results in a hose that maintains its integrity and performance over extended use, even under rigorous conditions.
