Stoptech Stainless Steel Rear Brake Lines
2005–2010 Scion tC
950.44505
Overview:
Stoptech Stainless Steel Rear Brake Lines are engineered specifically for the 2005 to 2010 Scion tC, designed to enhance braking performance and pedal feel. These brake lines replace the factory rubber flex lines with durable stainless steel braided lines that resist expansion under pressure. This upgrade delivers a more direct and responsive brake pedal, reducing the delay between pedal application and actual deceleration. Ideal for enthusiasts seeking improved brake modulation and consistent stopping power, these brake lines provide a noticeable improvement over stock components.
Whether you drive your Scion tC on the street or occasionally push it on the track, these brake lines help maintain precise brake control and confidence during spirited driving or daily use.
Key Features:
Stoptech stainless steel brake lines offer a range of benefits that enhance braking performance and durability:
- Stainless steel braided construction prevents line expansion under pressure for improved pedal feel
- Teflon inner tubing resists degradation from brake fluid and maintains consistent hydraulic pressure
- Clear abrasion-resistant outer cover protects against chafing and incidental damage
- DOT compliant and pressure tested to 4500 psi for safety and reliability
- Direct fit for 2005–2010 Scion tC rear brake system, ensuring easy installation
- Improves brake modulation and reduces pedal travel for quicker response
- Durable stainless steel braid withstands impact and abrasion better than rubber lines
Construction & Design:
These brake lines feature a high-quality Teflon inner tube that is highly resistant to expansion and chemical degradation from brake fluid exposure. Surrounding the Teflon core is a tightly woven stainless steel braid that provides structural support and protects the inner tube from damage. The stainless steel braid also prevents the line from swelling under hydraulic pressure, which is a common issue with stock rubber lines. A clear abrasion-resistant cover encases the entire assembly, offering additional protection against wear and chafing from road debris or suspension components.
The combination of these materials ensures long-lasting performance, durability, and consistent brake feel throughout the life of the product.
Performance & Sound
By eliminating the expansion commonly experienced with rubber brake lines, Stoptech stainless steel lines deliver a firmer, more consistent brake pedal feel. This translates to quicker brake response times and enhanced driver confidence, especially during aggressive driving or emergency stops. While these lines do not affect brake noise, they significantly improve the overall braking experience by providing precise modulation and consistent hydraulic pressure.
Installation & Fitment:
Stoptech stainless steel rear brake lines are designed as a direct replacement for the factory rear brake lines on the 2005–2010 Scion tC. Installation requires no modifications to the vehicle’s brake system, making it a straightforward upgrade for DIY enthusiasts or professional installers. It is recommended to have the brake system properly bled after installation to ensure optimal performance and safety.
