The role of the brake hose.
The brake hose plays a vital role in the automobile braking system. Its main functions include:
Transfer brake fluid pressure: The brake hose is responsible for transferring the brake pedal force to the brake system, thus achieving the braking effect of the vehicle. This is its most basic and core function, ensuring the effective operation of the brake system.
Adapt to complex working environment: brake hose has good ozone resistance, low temperature and high temperature resistance, as well as excellent flexibility and burst resistance, high tensile strength characteristics. These characteristics make the brake hose adapt to a variety of complex working environments, not easily damaged by external forces, so as to ensure the normal operation of the brake system.
Ensure the stability of the braking effect: These characteristics of the brake hose ensure the stability of its performance in different temperature environments, and it is not easy to age, crack or deformation, so as to ensure the stability of the braking effect.
Safety and durability: Brake hose made of high-strength materials, long service life, wear resistance, not easy to corrode or remove the head, to ensure the safety of the brake system. In addition, its surface has been specially treated, has good corrosion resistance, will not cause pollution to the environment.
Easy installation process: The installation of the brake hose is very simple and can be quickly connected to the brake system without affecting the normal use of the vehicle.
In short, the brake hose through its stable and reliable transmission function and excellent physical properties, to ensure the stability of the vehicle braking effect, to ensure the safety of driving. Therefore, it is an indispensable key component in the automobile brake system.
How often do brake hoses get replaced?
Brake hoses are generally recommended to be replaced every 3 years or every 60,000 kilometers traveled.
This recommendation is based on ensuring the good performance of the braking system and driving safety. In actual use, if the brake hose appears aging, hardening, cracking or oil leakage, it should also be replaced in time. Regular inspection and maintenance is very important to help detect and deal with these problems in a timely manner, thereby avoiding potential security risks.
Will the brakes fail if the brake hose breaks?
The brakes will fail if the brake hose breaks. Brake hose is a crucial component in the brake system, responsible for conveying brake oil, transmitting brake force, and ensuring timely and effective braking. Once the brake hose breaks, there will be oil leakage, which not only affects the braking effect, but also directly threatens driving safety. In order to restore the normal function of the brake, the damaged brake tubing must be replaced in time.
In addition, the brake hose rupture can be caused by a variety of reasons, including pipe body wear, cracking, bulging, oil leakage, joint fracture, etc. These conditions may be caused by long-term driving in bad road conditions, aging rubber materials, not timely replacement of parts that have expired, violent driving, etc. Therefore, keeping the brake hose in good condition is essential to ensure driving safety.
The outer rubber of the brake hose is damaged. Should I replace it?
The rubber on the outside of the brake hose is broken and needs to be replaced. This is because:
Broken rubber can affect the tightness and durability of the brake hose, increasing the risk of brake failure.
A broken brake hose may burst during continuous use or emergency braking, resulting in brake failure, which is very dangerous.
Even if there is no immediate oil leakage, broken rubber can deteriorate rapidly due to material aging or the use of inferior materials, ultimately leading to serious safety issues.
Therefore, in order to ensure driving safety, once the outer rubber layer of the brake hose is found to be damaged or cracked, it should be replaced immediately.
