Durable Construction and Design Features

The Dorman H380299 brake hydraulic hose features a flexible EPDM rubber hose core, known for its resistance to heat, ozone, and brake fluid degradation. The black PVC outer sleeve adds an extra layer of protection against abrasion and environmental exposure. Both ends of the hose are equipped with treated steel fittings—one banjo fitting with a 0.38-inch thread diameter and one female fitting with a 3/8 inch-24 inside diameter—ensuring secure and leak-free connections. The included gaskets help maintain a tight seal, while the protective jacket enhances hose longevity. This hose does not include mounting hardware or brackets, so existing components should be reused or replaced separately as needed.

Installation Notes and Tips
