Flexible Rubber Brake Hose
This Kodiak brake hose is made of rubber, making it a practical choice for a variety of applications. Because you can easily bend it, a rubber hose is simpler to work with than a rigid stainless steel brake line. This flexibility makes a rubber hose great for use with foldaway trailer tongues because it is less likely to kink or break when bent. In addition, rubber hoses allow for a wide range of motion so articulating parts can effectively function. These qualities make rubber hoses better suited than steel lines for trailers with torsion axle suspension systems and trailers that have disc brakes.
Stainless steel brake lines have braided exteriors, which can not only wear against exterior surfaces, but also against the interior lining of the hose if dirt gets underneath the steel braid. And if the braid on a stainless steel line tears, it can cut into the hose lining. The exterior surface of this hose is solid rubber, so there are no crevices for debris to enter.
Durable Fittings with Deep Threads
Kodiak brake hoses have corrosion-resistant brass fittings with stainless steel flares. These fittings have a gap built into them that allows room for a line wrench - also called a flare nut wrench - to slide over the line and down to the nut. This type of wrench grips the nut better than a standard open-ended wrench so there is less chance of stripping the threads as you tighten down the nut.
The stainless steel that is used to create the flares on this hose is stronger than brass. As a result, these fittings are more durable than ones made entirely of brass. The stainless flares are primarily designed to keep the fittings from splitting when you tighten them down, but they offer absolute rust protection as well.
Kodiak's fittings have deeper threads than many other fittings on the market to provide a higher thread engagement. Deeper threads offer an advantage when used with fittings that have the same thread depth. These Kodiak fittings will work with most fittings on the market, but when they're used with other Kodiak fittings, the result is a stronger connection with fewer leaks.

This flexible, rubber brake line acts as part of a trailer's hydraulic braking system. Stainless steel flares, brass fittings, and a high thread engagement help prevent splits, corrosion, and leaks. Includes 2 standard male flare nut fittings.This is a well made brake hose perfect for fold-away trailer coupler hinges, but lacking the $2 worth of fittings you need to install it. Add time for a needless trip to the store when you buy this hose. Kodiak and/or etrailer would do well by it’s customers to include the required fittings, even if the price went up by $2.
Works great with no problems whatsoever.
Always shows up when they say and the products I have used from etrailer have been excellent
Great brake lines!
The brake line arrived on time, it was packaged well. The fitment on my truck was perfect, I think I spent more time zip tying than actually installing the line. I would definitely order from here again and I highly recommend them. Thank you for a great product!
I ordered 2 brake lines but received the wrong lines. I called about the problem and the person I spoke to was very helpful. I was told they would send the correct hoses and to keep the wrong ones.
The new "one" showed up which was the correct line but I ordered 2. I called again and was told by a very helpful person that the 2nd line would be sent immediately. Three days later I have the brake line.
Overall the product looks well-made and everyone was extremely helpful, but it took a month and 2 phone calls to get my order right.
I don't think I will order from etrailer again. Not because of the product or customer support but because it took 3 tries to get my order right.
Just as I expected
Disc brake install was greatest thing i did for my family's safety. Electric brakes on 40ft units should not be allowed.No oversite on this problem just cheaper to install electric brakes instead
Very impressed with the quality of service provided by Wayne H. of etrailer.com. He was very efficient and courteous, and knew his products well. Was also pleasantly surprised how quickly I received my order, so they must have gotten it out quick. All in all, very happy with the transaction and will return and recommend others to etrailer.com.
Website was easy and it shipped fast
Since I’ve found etrailer I’ve used them 3 times and found product, price, shipping and service excellent!
I have many trailers and will continue to use etrailer.
The products that I ordered were exactly what I had expected, what I did not expect was the almost instant response and extremely fast delivery. I couldn't be more pleased.
Thank you so much and I will make all of my future purchases from etrailer.
