Which brand of brake steel throat is better

Nowadays, upgrading the brake steel hose has become a hot topic, but many car owners don't know where to start because there are too many brands. This is the first to understand the principle, structure and manufacturing process of brake steel hose.

Structurally, the brake steel hose is divided into three layers. The first layer (die) is made of nylon material with high temperature resistance and high toughness, which has to cope with the high temperature caused by violent braking and long-term twisting without breaking. The second layer (middle layer) is a stainless steel wire braided mesh, the main task is to resist the high pressure generated by the brake master cylinder, prevent the excessive expansion of the core, avoid the loss of oil pressure due to excessive brake oil throughput, and reduce the braking performance.

The third layer (outermost layer) is the packaging layer, which plays the role of beauty, anti-oxidation, anti-wear and so on.

After understanding the principle and structure of the steel throat, we began to talk about brands and purchases, there are many brands, such as GD, RTS, FECC and so on. Isn't all we need is good, durable, and cheap? From the previous we have learned, as long as the tubing does not expand and does not lose oil pressure, it can achieve the purpose of modifying the steel hose, all the steel hose structures on the market are the same, the difference is only the material, design and production process.

That is to say, the effect of all steel throat lifting on the market is the same (because the structure is the same, it will not expand, and it will not lose oil pressure), so you don't have to worry about which brand has the best effect. Then look at the durability, durability depends on the treatment of the joint and the pipe body link, one of which is through the high-pressure machine suffocation process requirements are relatively high, unless the well-known old brand has technical support, other small brands really need to think twice, because through the hydraulic press high-pressure extrusion hoop link, the pressure is difficult to grasp, the pressure is too small easy to leak oil, the pressure is too large is easy to press out the steel wire out of the dark injury, the use of broken head burst phenomenon, very dangerous! Goodridge is the way to link, but the pressure is well grasped.

Another link method is used by RTS, which is locked and squeezed by the nut and the joint, so that the pipe body is very firmly fixed, and the copper core is sealed with oil. Personally, I think RTS is the most reliable way to link, because there is no possibility of wire damage in this way, and it is impossible to have broken heads and burst pipes! Maybe the concept of RTS designers is to ensure safety first, and then talk about durability!

Then there is the buffer treatment at the link between the joint and the pipe, whether it is durable or not is to see here, here RTS and APJSHI are commendable, they use a large number of buffer rubber blocks and anti-wear blocks on the steel throat, which can greatly increase the life. Some brands that are just a thin layer of heat shrinkable film are really not worth recommending, and there is no protection at all.

Finally, there is the ** aspect, as a world-renowned brand Goodridge is well known in the modification industry, but the close to the sky-high ** makes many modification enthusiasts shy away. APJSHI, as the leader of the brand that has just come out, ** seems to be also high. The ** positioning of RTS civilians is really accepted by many riders, and the quality is often surprising

Finally in performance, durability, **. All things considered, I think the RTS is the most cost-effective and the most worth buying
