  Rubber brake hoses have a relatively short reliable life.        
 
 

The estimated life of a typical 'rubber' brake hose is 6 years, then they can become safety hazards. Imagine brake hoses as arteries in the human body. A person could live a normal life with hard and restricted arteries, but it's when they exert their heart to some stress that symptoms arise. The same applies to brake hoses.
 

There are numerous factors that contribute to the 6 year deterioration of rubber brake hoses including:
   
 

  Moisture absorption into the brake fluid through the hose.

  Contaminants in brake fluid are abrasive on the inner walls.

  Hoses deteriorate from inside as well as outside.

  Hose reinforcing fabric weakens from expansion and moisture.

  High brake operating temperatures.

  Constant flexing from steering and suspension weakens hoses.

  Brake hoses swell with age which causes restricted flow.
