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.

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.

These parts arrived quickly even across the border here in Ontario Canada. They are excellent quality and look as described. I did have to pay Canadian taxes at the post office but that is all part of cross border shopping.
Hi George, you're welcome. I have made several purchases from E Trailer, things have always worked out great.
It fit perfectly and was easy to install. Customer service was excellent.
Exactly what I needed!
You can see a video of the installation! Crabbycraig1 on tiktok and YouTube :)
I started with new backing plates and brakes and new drums . Next I connected them with Kodiak rubber break lines and connected them to a Demco actuator. This completed the replacement of my non functioning break system . The entire process was fairly simple with the parts I was able to get from E trailer
The shipment was extremely quick and the product (brake line) was very high quality. Unfortunately, the length was about 2ft too short, so I'll be looking on etrailer this morning to see if I can find something a little longer.
I appreciate the follow-up email. Great company, and great service!
Bought 18 ft. brake line to use on an orchard hydraulic pruner. Needed the flexibility of the hose to eliminate tube bending. I couldn't find a place to submit my order online, but when I called, the customer service was excellent. The order was received and shipped out immediately along with updated tracking info all along the way. I have ordered from etrailer before and have always been satisfied, so I will continue to order parts from them as needed.
Got exactly what I ordered one day early
Needed to replace brake hose on boat trailer. This one was offered at a great price and was the same as what was originally on trailer. It's been installed on trailer for a couple of weeks now and works perfectly
Product as expected from etrailer. Worked great for installation on a Titan 19' trailer when I converted it to a swing tongue last summer. durable product w/ brass fittings.
Received exactly what I ordered and great service!!
Lori was a big help in my purchase of this hose. I replaced one hose and the metal brake line that ran from the actuator to the rear "T" fitting on my Ellis boat trailer.
Exactly the line I needed to replace what I had on my dual axle disc brake trailer. Very fast shipping and great customer service. I will buy all my trailer parts from here from now on.
Very happy with the knowledgeable support team. They quickly determined the correct parts to order for my trailer brakes. Received the parts faster than expected. No additional parts were needed. A big thanks to them.
Thanks!
My new brake hose fit like a glove!
Really quick shipping. Ordered on Monday received on Wednesday and installed on Thursday.
Bleed the brakes tomorrow and I will be ready to go.
I've ordered from etrailer in the past and am very satisfied.
etrailer hands down is the best place for anything trailer related. Their shipping is fire!!!! A+++ all the way !!
Hose worked great! Used it to replace a steel line after installing a folding boat trailer tongue.
Excellent replacement part for my nautique boat trailer!
Same size and fittings as my 2003 karavan. I couldn't be happier with my purchase. thank you etrailer!!!
As adverstised, good product, price, and fast delivery. A third of the price of an OEM replacement.
Thank you!
It was just as advertised and the process was great. The tracking information was amazing!
Good hose. Haven't had any problems with it.

It works great. Had never heard of a brake line getting blocked, you learn something new.

Thanks for the follow up, we do have other brake lines available in other lengths. For example # BH-3MFS-20 is 20 feet long.
