brake lines
Hydraulic stopping system tubes
Brake lines are the tubes or hoses that carry hydraulic fluid from a vehicle's brake pedal mechanism to the brakes at each wheel.
When you press the brake pedal, fluid flows through these lines to activate the braking system.
Brake lines are typically made of metal tubing with flexible rubber or braided steel sections near the wheels to accommodate suspension movement.
