As in any performance application, replacing squishy rubber
parts with a performance piece will increase response and feel -
brakes are no different. Stock rubber brake hoses (4-6 per car)
expand under pressure, requiring increased fluid volume and
increased pedal movement for a desired stopping force. Constructed
using top quality components, our braided stainless lines reduce
this slop dramatically.
BimmerWorld V2 lines feature a non-expansive Teflon® center
core, surrounded by braided stainless steel for durability and
abrasion resistance. V2 lines incorporate a coated alloy attachment
sleeve for added strength and chemical resistance. Lines are
sheathed with an attractive blue plastic cover for a clean look and
to prevent debris from working into the stainless
braids.
Line end fittings are a heavy-duty steel with a durable zinc
plating. In our years of experience in racing and the performance
BMW industry, we have seen several specific failures from typical
stainless brake lines. Our fittings are designed to eliminate the
common stress/failure point. Additionally, the hydraulic crimping
method used in manufacturing our BimmerWorld V2 lines leaves a
smooth transition between the filling and line, which is yet
further protected from stress and abrasion by a flexible rubber
sleeve.
Finally, all of our BimmerWorld V2 lines are tested to at least
3,000psi, and stamped with our DOT approval number. This DOT stamp
is the government's approval that our manufacturing process
produces lines able to endure rigorous testing that simulates road
use. This 3 digit stamp on each of our lines ensures that every
line is made and tested to DOT standards, with the DOT stamp of
approval - not just "made to DOT standards" or "DOT compliant" like
many other brands.
Each of our line sets includes either 4 or 6 lines to replace
ALL rubber lines on your BMW, resulting in a rock-solid brake pedal
and results you will feel immediately. Custom line sets also
available, including partial sets to compliment big-brake kits and
AN lines for racing applications - please inquire.
*Some 1999
E36 cars use a 4 line kit with only 2 lines in the rear of the car
(1 per side). Please verify which set your car uses if you
have any doubts.
