StopFlex - D.O.T. Stainless Steel Hoses
For domestic & import, cars & trucks—
classics, hot rods, muscle, jeep, racing... and bikes...
  • D.O.T. approved for street use
  • No volumetric expansion
  • Immediate response; not soft as with other hoses
  • Corrosion resistant

Use Classic Tube's StopFlex hose assemblies for brake and clutch applications to eliminate the spongy pedal feel and provide greater braking efficiency and clutch operation.


STOPFLEX® incorporates a special 4 layer design for superior strength and virtually no volumetric expansion. It starts with a Teflon PTFE core (liner) which is wrapped first in a Kevlar braid, followed by an elastomer barrier and then it's strengthened further by the outer stainless steel braid. STOPFLEX® hoses are also available with a final coat of clear vinyl for a great look and easy clean up.

Replacing original equipment rubber hoses with STOPFLEX® stainless steel braided hoses will increase braking performance by doing away with the soft spongy brake pedal. Rubber hoses expand, with the approximately 1200 psi. generated under hard braking. STOPFLEX® results show a firmer pedal, allowing more control during braking.

What makes a hose D.O.T. certified?
The Department of Transportation (D.O.T.) has developed a set of standards, FMVSS # 06 (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard), to which all flexible hoses must perform without failing under extreme conditions. In order to be certified the hose must pass the "whip" test. STOPFLEX® hose's 4 layer design has proved superior under testing conditions and have surpassed D.O.T. conditions.
