2. Banjo fitting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banjo_fitting

   Two banjo fittings (upper center of photo) atop automotive brake calipers. The copper crush washer in the gap between the fitting and body of the caliper completes the seal. Compared to pipe fittings that are themselves threaded, banjo fittings have the advantage that they do not have to be rotated relative to the host fitting. This avoids ...

3. Braided stainless steel brake lines - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braided_stainless_steel...

   Braided stainless steel brake lines (also known as braided stainless steel brake hoses) are flexible hoses fitted to a hydraulic brake system. The intent of braided stainless steel brake lines is to improve brake system effectiveness and longevity as compared to an equivalent system fitted with flexible rubber hoses through near-elimination of hose expansion.

4. Bundy tube - Wikipedia

   It is used in automotive hydraulic brake lines in cars manufactured in the US since the 1930s. The Bundy Tubing Company, started in the US, was bought in the 1980s by what is now the British company TI Fluid system .

5. Hydraulic brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_brake

   Water vaporizes easily with heat and can corrode the metal parts of the system. Water which enters brake lines, even in small amounts, will react with most common brake fluids (i.e., those which are hygroscopic [8] [9]) causing the formation of deposits which can clog the brake lines and reservoir. It is almost impossible to completely seal any ...

7. Power brakes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_brakes

   The hydraulic pressure is translated through the brake lines to the brake calipers. When the brake fluid is pushed through the brake lines, the master cylinder chambers are replenished by the reservoir (attached to the top of the master cylinder).
