3/16″ × 12″ European-Style Flexible Brake Line 

Restore precise, factory-correct braking on European vehicles with the 4LifetimeLines® 3/16″ × 12″ European-Style Flexible Brake Line. This hose features a synthetic rubber core encased in a crush-resistant steel braid, delivering consistent fluid flow and a firm pedal feel from –40 °F to 275 °F. Precision-machined banjo fittings match BMW, Mercedes, Audi, VW, and other European models exactly, so installation is a true plug-and-play swap—no adapters or re-routing required.

Engineered for European Applications

European brake systems demand exact tolerances and corrosion protection. Our hose uses OEM-pattern threads and banjo diameters to recreate factory sealing surfaces, while the braided sheath prevents kinking and withstands chassis movement. Fully DOT FMVSS 106 compliant, it meets burst-pressure requirements and resists brake-fluid additives for long-term reliability.

Installation Highlights

Remove the original hose and copper sealing washers, then thread the new banjo fittings into the caliper and hard-line ports using fresh washers. Route the hose through the factory bracket, ensuring it clears hot or sharp surfaces, and secure with the OE clip. A thorough bleed restores air-free, precise braking response in minutes.
