By the way,
TRW is Germany's market leader for steel-braided brake lines, and gives a long-term guarantee on materials and workmanship. Each line carries a registered serial number and the manufacturer's code.
Please note: You can find installation instructions and the type approval for Germany in the "Documents" section. They can be viewed or printed out in pdf format.
Installation instructions:
Some motorcycles have a permanently welded distributor as standard. It cannot be used if you install steel-braided brake lines. For these models, we supply a two-piece kit, which enables two lines to be secured to the hand-pump by means of the double banjo bolt supplied.

Stainless steel is a collective term for rustproof steel. It is much more resistant to corrosion than non-alloyed steels. Stainless steel does not deteriorate, and is hygienic, UV-resistant, non-corroding, fracture-proof, non-toxic and environmentally friendly. It does not weather and can be recycled in its entirety, even after many years. Technically, the term "stainless steel" refers to corrosion-resistant steel alloys with a wide variety of compositions but always containing a high percentage of chromium (usually a minimum of 10.5%)
.
MAINTENANCE:
Stainless steel should be cleaned regularly like all other materials, especially after exposure to salty air (near the coast), and also at regular intervals.
Water can easily collect in corners, edges and screw connections, resulting in corrosion. So careful cleaning is important, and if necessary screws should be undone in order to clean the parts thoroughly.
Do not leave rusty steel parts against stainless steel to avoid the rust "contamination".
