16in DOT Endura Brk Hose #3 90 Deg to #3 Str

The Russell 16-inch DOT Endura brake hose with 3 AN 90-degree to 3 AN straight connections is a DOT-approved hydraulic brake line engineered for high-pressure systems requiring reliable, code-compliant fluid delivery. This 16-inch pre-assembled hose assembly incorporates braided stainless steel construction with PTFE (Teflon) internal lining, designed to handle the demanding thermal and pressure cycles common in performance braking applications, including heavy-duty vehicles, emergency service fleet operations, and competition motorsports platforms.

The PTFE liner resists degradation from DOT 3, DOT 4, and synthetic brake fluid formulations, critical for long-term durability in systems where fluid replacement intervals extend beyond typical passenger vehicle maintenance schedules. The braided stainless steel exterior provides abrasion resistance and corrosion protection, particularly valuable in salt-air or wet-environment deployments where standard rubber hoses deteriorate prematurely. The 3 AN female-to-female configuration (90-degree and straight) allows flexible routing around engine compartment obstacles while maintaining secure JIC-style connections that eliminate the failure modes associated with compression or barbed fittings.

This hose assembly serves operators rebuilding or upgrading brake systems on tactical vehicles, off-road platforms, commercial transport, and specialty automotive projects where code compliance and system reliability are non-negotiable. The DOT approval ensures acceptance in jurisdictions requiring certified brake components. At 0.25 lbs, the hose remains lightweight while delivering the pressure-handling capacity required for modern ABS-equipped and traditional hydraulic brake systems. Russell's established reputation in automotive fluid systems makes this replacement hose a direct-interchange solution for OEM and aftermarket brake line applications.
