They can not only look good
The fitting of high-quality brake hoses not only serves the design of your car or motorcycle. They also offer invaluable advantages over conventional rubber cables.
Steel flex brake lines can be installed in practically all passenger car models and motorcycles, even in vintage cars. On the back of each pack are well-understandable assembly instructions. Safety-related components must be installed in a specialist workshop. If you do not have a regular set of brake hoses for your car, we will be pleased to make you a special one .
Advantages of the steel flex brake lines at a glance:
• Durability: Compared to rubber products, steel flex brake lines cannot get porous.
• Appearance: In order to be fair to the fans of vintage cars and new car drivers alike, there are steel flex brake cables in different coloured casings. This allows the original design to be retained. The colour is, however, usually black, since this is closest to the rubber lines.
• Protection against small animals: Martens like to bite at a warm rubber brake hose. Even if the animals were to try and bite the steel flex brake lines, they would quickly realize that this is impossible.
• Protective Device: Equipped with an additional rubber hose, the steel flex brake cables are also secured against stone impacts and rides on rough terrains.
• Exact metering: The brake lines are coated with steel fabric. This allows the driver to easily find the optimum pressure point during braking.
• High Load: For drives in hilly areas or while participating in car racing events, brake hoses are best suited. In these situations, normal brakes are used more quickly. In this case, brake fading may occur. This can be avoided if steel flex brake lines by Techlinger are used. Brake lines made of rubber can expan
d at short notice and thus lose their effectiveness.
• Proven Quality: The safety of our customers is of paramount importance. Therefore, all products are extensively tested. The most important fittings are made of even higher quality materials. Even the ferrules are made of V2A stainless steel.
• ABE including: Steel flex brake cables from Techlinger are delivered as standard with Dekra ABE (general operating license) or with part certificates. (ABE = free registration).

One of the most important advantages is the exact metering. Conventional brake hoses made of rubber expand slightly during a strong braking process. This means that exact metering is not always possible. The steel flex brake lines are reinforced with a V2A steel fabric and cannot expand with it. As a result, the brake lines by Techlinger never lose their effectiveness or precision.
Our flexible hoses also have advantages when driving in border areas. If they go down a long pass or participate in car races, the brakes are stressed more than normal. By doing this, they become very hot and hence it can lead to dangerous braking. Flexible hoses prevent this.
Steel flex brake lines do not become porous over time, like normal brake hoses. This is why, they must never be exchanged, as they do not lose their reliability and performance. Thus, these brake lines can also save a lot of money. The changeover interval for the brake fluid can be delayed because our steel flex lines do not draw any water, which then enters the brake fluid.
Brake Hose Optics
For many car drivers and, above all, for fans of vintage cars, an original look is very important. This can be achieved very well with the steel flex brake hoses. Hence, they are very popular with fans of vintage cars. Thus, you have the chance to bring an old car to today's safety standards, without losing the original look. Especially, the UV protective coating of the lines is very useful, since in most cases, it is hardly distinguishable from the original, if one chooses them in black.
Martens and other sources of damage: no chance
Some car drivers and motorcyclists always have problems with marten bites. Here too, steel flex cables provide you with security. The steel mantle of the pipe cannot be bitten by the marten. This means you do not lose any brake fluid and do not have to worry about brake failure. In addition, our flexible hoses also offer protection against mechanical damage. This is mostly caused due to damages from stone impacts. If, for example, you are on a dirt road, the stones could damage the rubber brake hoses.
Steel flex brake lines are delivered in a ready to assemble manner and are delivered with a general operating license (ABE, free of registration). This saves a lot of work and also, there are no problems with the TÜV (no demonstration and no registration costs necessary). The quality is always checked according to the FMVSS06 standards.
