Product Details and Specifications
The Dorman H38225 brake hydraulic hose is engineered with a flexible EPDM rubber hose material that resists heat, ozone, and brake fluid degradation. The outer sleeve is constructed from black rubber, providing additional protection against abrasion and environmental factors. Both ends feature treated steel fittings—male on one end with a 10 mm thread diameter and female on the other with an M10 x 1.0 inside diameter—to ensure a secure and leak-free connection within the brake system. This hose measures 18.25 inches in overall length, matching the exact requirements for Toyota Starlet brake lines. Note that this part does not include mounting hardware, brackets, gaskets, or seals.
Common Applications and Problem Resolution
- Replacement of worn or cracked brake hydraulic hoses on Toyota Starlet vehicles

Installation Notes and Tips
When installing the Dorman H38225 brake hydraulic hose, ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and supported. Carefully remove the old hose, avoiding contamination of the brake fluid system. Verify that the treated steel fittings align correctly with the brake line connections on the Toyota Starlet. Use appropriate tools to tighten fittings to manufacturer torque specifications to prevent leaks. Bleed the brake system thoroughly after installation to remove air and restore proper brake function. Since mounting hardware and brackets are not included, reuse existing components or source compatible parts as needed.
