Durable Construction and Precise Fitment
The Dorman H36958 brake hydraulic hose is constructed from EPDM rubber, known for its resistance to heat, ozone, and brake fluid degradation. The black rubber outer sleeve adds an extra layer of protection against abrasion and environmental factors. Both ends of the hose are equipped with treated steel fittings—one end with a 10 mm banjo fitting and the other with male and female fittings featuring 5/8 in-18 external and 3/8 in-24 internal diameters. This ensures a secure and leak-resistant connection within the brake system of Chevrolet and GMC trucks. The hose’s flexible design and 19.88-inch overall length allow it to fit precisely in the brake line routing of K20 and K2500 series vehicles.
