Detailed Product Description

The Dorman H36601 brake hydraulic hose is a flexible hose designed to replace worn or damaged brake lines on Ford Thunderbird vehicles. Its EPDM rubber hose material offers resistance to heat, ozone, and brake fluid, ensuring long-lasting service life. The black rubber outer sleeve with an additional jacket protects the hose from abrasion and environmental damage. Both ends of the hose are equipped with treated steel fittings: a banjo fitting on one end with a 0.38-inch thread diameter and a female fitting on the other with a 3/8 inch-24 inside diameter, providing secure and leak-free connections.
