FAQs

What material are these brake hose washers made of?

These brake hose washers are made of copper.

How many washers are included in this set?

This set includes 10 copper brake hose washers.

Are these washers suitable for all vehicles?

They are designed for universal application with standard brake hose fittings. However, always check your vehicle's specific requirements to ensure the 10.3mm x 15.7mm x 1.5mm dimensions are correct.

What does 'universal' mean in this context?

Universal means they are designed to fit a wide range of common automotive brake hose connections, rather than being specific to a single make or model.

Can I reuse these copper washers?

It is strongly recommended not to reuse copper washers. They are designed to deform slightly to create a seal, and reusing them may compromise the seal and lead to leaks.

How should I store these washers?

Store them in their original blister packaging in a dry, clean place to prevent corrosion and keep them organized.

What is the purpose of a copper washer in a brake line?

A copper washer acts as a gasket between two metal surfaces (like a brake hose fitting and a brake line) to create a tight seal that prevents brake fluid from leaking under pressure.

Troubleshooting

Brake fluid leak after installation

Check that the washer is correctly seated and that the fitting nut is tightened to the correct torque specification. Inspect both the brake hose fitting and the brake line for any damage or debris that might prevent a proper seal. Ensure the correct size washer was used.

Washer appears deformed or damaged

This can occur from overtightening. Loosen the fitting, remove the damaged washer, and replace it with a new one. Always tighten fittings gradually and to the recommended torque.

Difficulty fitting the washer

Confirm that the washer size (10.3mm x 15.7mm x 1.5mm) matches the requirements of your specific brake hose fitting. Ensure there are no burrs or imperfections on the connection surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

  3. Thread the brake hose fitting nut over the washer and connect it to the brake line.
