Stock front brake hoses of Volvo S60 are made of rubber. Moisture will be absorbed into the brake fluid systems through rubber brake hoses and contaminate brake fluid, contaminated brake fluid can be harmful to the rubber brake hoses' inner surface, and affect the braking performance. It is advisable to check your rubber brake hoses frequently for possible faulty.
Volvo S60 stock front rubber brake hoses are changed to steel braided ones from SuperCircuit. The steel braided brake hose gives more feedback and more responsive against the factory fitted rubber brake hose due to the superior performance of the inner Teflon core and steel braided outer layer preventing the brake hose from expanding under severe conditions i.e. high temperature operation, heavy braking, down hills etc.
Rear braking system is equally important.
Volvo S60 factory stock rear rubber brake hose vs. SuperCircuit steel braided brake hose.
Replaced with SuperCircuit steel braided brake hoses to eliminate brake pedal sponginess, provide firm and immediate brake response hence reduce braking distance during emergency braking.
SuperCircuit steel Braided Brake Lines are compliant to Society of Automotive Engineers, International (SAE J1401) and DOT Standard Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS106) and every hose is tested to 3000 p.s.i. (normal brake master pump will reach around 1800 p.s.i.). Best of all, it comes with lifetime warranty*.
