Classification of brake hose
According to the different forms of automobile braking, divided into hydraulic brake hose, pneumatic brake hose and vacuum brake hose. According to its material is divided into rubber brake hose and nylon brake hose.
Advantages and disadvantages of brake hose
Rubber brake hose has a strong tensile ability, easy to install the advantages, disadvantages are long time use, the surface cellar is easy to aging.
Nylon brake hose has the advantages of anti-aging, corrosion resistance, the disadvantage is that in the case of low temperature, tensile capacity is weakened, such as the impact of external forces, easy to rupture.
Brake hose maintenance
Brake hose is an important part to ensure the safe operation of the vehicle, each person using the car should pay special attention to the usual maintenance and inspection. In normal times should pay attention to the following points.
1, regularly check the brake hose, keep the surface of the brake hose clean, avoid its corrosion.
Avoid pulling the brake hose by external force.
Brake hose
3, diligently check the brake hose connector whether there is loose and sealing phenomenon.
4, long-term use of the brake hose, such as found to have aging, sealing laxity or the phenomenon of scratching, should be replaced in a timely manner.
Brake hose failure on the impact of the braking system
If the brake hose appears to the inner cellar accumulation becomes large, it will make the car's braking system more lagging if there is a rupture condition, it will make the braking system failure.
If the brake hose is clogged, it will not be able to brake.
Why are brake hoses not made of metal?
Brake hoses are not made of metal because the wheels can fluctuate up and down according to the road surface, and the front wheels can be steered left and right, so they must be connected with hoses, and the gold flex pipe is not fluctuating and is easy to break.
So generally still do not use metal.
