28in #3 Line -3 Str/-3 Str

The ALLSTAR PERFORMANCE 28in #3 Line -3 Str/-3 Str brake hose is purpose-built for high-performance automotive brake systems where precision fluid delivery and reliability are non-negotiable. Designed for custom fabrication, restoration, and competition vehicles, this 28-inch hose bridges engine bay components with precision that OEM systems simply cannot match. Whether you're assembling a custom brake line layout, upgrading to a high-performance master cylinder, or fabricating a fuel system with brake-line discipline, this AN-rated hose delivers the control serious mechanics demand.

Constructed with braided stainless steel reinforcement and PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) lining, the 28in #3 Line -3 Str/-3 Str combines superior abrasion resistance with chemical inertness—critical when working with DOT 3, DOT 4, or specialty brake fluids. The -3 AN designation indicates 3/16-inch nominal ID with a 3 AN straight female end on both sides, allowing seamless integration into custom manifolds, proportioning valves, and hardline transitions without adapters that could introduce leak points or pressure loss. PTFE lining prevents swelling or degradation from aggressive brake fluid formulations, while the stainless braid resists corrosion from road salt and engine heat cycles—vital for long-term reliability in harsh environments or multi-season competition use.

This hose excels in custom brake system builds, vintage hot rods, track cars, and any application where OEM hose routing is incompatible with modified engine bays or suspension geometry. The 28-inch length accommodates mid-length runs between proportioning blocks and wheel cylinders, or between master cylinders and remote distribution blocks in tight engine compartments. At 0.17 lbs, the minimal weight makes it ideal for competition weight reduction while maintaining the structural integrity required for sustained high-pressure cycles. Verify AN thread compatibility on your fittings before ordering—the 3 AN straight female ends require matching male inverted flare or straight male adapters to complete your system.
