For more information, visit www.P65warnings.ca.gov.The APR Braided Stainless Steel Brake Lines (BRK00049) are a premium performance upgrade for the VW MK5 R32 and MK6 Golf R. Designed to replace the factory rubber hoses—which are prone to expansion, softening, and even rupturing under high-heat or heavy braking—these lines provide a significantly firmer and more consistent pedal feel. By utilizing a smooth-bore PTFE (Teflon) core wrapped in 304 stainless steel braid, expansion is virtually eliminated, ensuring brake fluid pressure is delivered instantly to the calipers.
Unlike universal "one-size-fits-most" kits that rely on adapters, these are application-specific, featuring the exact lengths and fittings required for a leak-free, plug-and-play installation. Each line is protected by a smoked-clear PVC outer jacket to prevent the stainless braid from abrading other suspension components while showcasing the high-quality construction and red anodized accents. Tested to 3,000 PSI, these lines far exceed the demands of both street and track driving.
Features:
- Firmer Pedal Feel: Low-expansion PTFE core reduces pedal travel and provides more precise modulation during threshold braking.
- Direct-Fit Engineering: Application-specific lengths and fittings eliminate the need for dangerous connector adapters.
- High-Strength Construction: Braided 304 stainless steel resists external damage and internal pressure fatigue.
- Extreme Pressure Tested: Every individual line is tested to 3,000 PSI—well beyond typical braking system pressures.
- Certified Safety: Fully DOT-compliant and independently lab-certified to meet FMVSS106 and SAE J1401 standards.
- Fluid Compatibility: Works seamlessly with all common brake fluids, including DOT 3, 4, 5 (silicone), and 5.1.
- Durable Finish: Smoked-clear PVC jacket with Cr3+ steel connectors and red anodized inserts for a high-end look.
