Power Steering

 

Hose Designed for Automotive Applications

A power steering hose from a typical hose shop often features a 100R5 or similar steel wire braid construction, which is primarily designed for industrial hydraulic applications. While durable, these hoses are over-engineered for automotive power steering systems. Their rigid design offers minimal expansion, leading to the transfer of noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) throughout the system, resulting in a less refined driving experience.

BrakeQuip high and low-pressure power steering hoses feature a double braided-nylon design, specifically engineered for optimal performance. These high-expansion hoses are designed to effectively dampen pressure waves, significantly improving noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) throughout the power steering system, resulting in a smoother and quieter driving experience.

Faithful Replication

When designing a vehicle, manufacturers or custom builders strategically position the engine, suspension, and steering components within the chassis. Afterward, they face the challenge of figuring out the optimal way to connect everything. This process frequently results in power steering hoses featuring long or intricate tube forms, tailored to accommodate the unique layout of each vehicle's components.

As a BrakeQuip Authorized Dealer, you gain access to an extensive selection of braze-on and compression style crimp fittings available in multiple tube sizes, enabling the use of reclaimed or replacement tube forms in new hose assemblies.

To fully equip your power steering plumbing projects, BrakeQuip Dealers also stock a wide range of popular universal male and female swivel crimp fittings, bump tube adapters, banjo heads, and copper washers. These essential components ensure you have everything needed for a complete and reliable installation.

Tuning Solution

BrakeQuip Dealers rely on PTFE flow restrictors to ensure power steering hoses remain quiet and vibration-free. Our PTFE tuning devices are designed for quick and easy installation, providing an effective solution for reducing power steering noise and enhancing overall performance.
