Please select your exact vehicle from the available options before ordering, as brake line configurations may vary depending on production year and braking system.
Why upgrade to HEL braided brake lines?
The original rubber brake hoses fitted to your Porsche are designed to provide flexibility whilst allowing for suspension and steering movement. Under repeated heavy braking and increased operating temperatures, rubber hoses can expand slightly, affecting pedal feel.
HEL braided brake lines feature a PTFE inner hose surrounded by a tightly woven stainless-steel braid. This reinforced construction helps reduce hose expansion, allowing hydraulic pressure to be transferred more consistently from the brake pedal to the brake calipers.
The result is a firmer, more confidence-inspiring brake pedal, especially during repeated high-speed braking where consistency is essential.
Designed for road and track performance
Whether your Cayman is used as a weekend sports car, a fast-road machine or a dedicated track-day vehicle, HEL braided brake lines are one of the most worthwhile supporting brake upgrades.
They pair perfectly with:
-
Performance brake pads
-
High-performance brake fluid
-
Two-piece or OEM brake discs
-
Porsche PCCB or steel braking systems (where applicable)
-
Track-focused wheel and tyre packages
While braided brake lines do not increase outright braking power, they help maintain a consistent pedal feel by reducing flex within the hydraulic system, making them particularly beneficial during repeated heavy braking.
Available hose colours
HEL Performance brake lines are available in a variety of protective outer-cover colours to suit your Porsche or brake caliper colour scheme.
Available colours include:
-
Black
-
Carbon Black
-
Blue
-

-
Green
-

-
Transparent Clear
-

Standard black kits are generally the quickest to dispatch, while some colours are manufactured to order and may have a slightly longer lead time.
Installation and compatibility
Professional installation is recommended. Following installation, the braking system must be filled and bled correctly using a suitable brake fluid before the vehicle is driven.
Brake fluid is not included unless selected as part of a product variant.
To ensure the correct HEL kit is supplied, we recommend providing your vehicle registration number or full 17-digit VIN before ordering. This enables us to verify compatibility with your Porsche's exact specification.
As an authorised HEL Performance retailer, Nineteen72 Performance supplies genuine HEL braided brake line kits backed by expert advice and support for both road and track Porsche enthusiasts.

HEL Performance FAQ's
Here's some frequently asked questions about HEL braking products!
Who are HEL Performance?
HEL Performance are a UK-based manufacturer best known for stainless steel braided brake lines, clutch lines, AN fittings and motorsport braking components. They manufacture their mainline stainless steel high-performance brake line fittings in-house in the UK.
Why choose HEL braided brake lines?
HEL braided brake lines are a popular upgrade because they help improve brake pedal feel, reduce hose expansion and provide more consistent braking response. They are a strong choice for road, fast road, track day and motorsport applications.
What is the difference between braided brake lines and rubber brake hoses?
Standard rubber brake hoses can expand under pressure, particularly as they age or when the brakes get hot. Braided brake lines use a reinforced stainless steel outer layer to help reduce expansion, giving a firmer and more consistent pedal feel.
Are HEL brake lines suitable for road cars?
Yes, HEL braided brake lines are suitable for many road cars when the correct kit is selected and fitted properly. They are a common upgrade on performance road cars because they improve pedal feel without needing to change the calipers or discs.
Are HEL brake lines suitable for track cars?
Yes, HEL braided brake lines are well suited to track cars. On track, braking systems are exposed to higher temperatures and repeated heavy braking, so pedal consistency becomes more important.
Should I upgrade brake fluid at the same time?
Do HEL brake lines come in different colours?
HEL brake lines are available with different hose colour options depending on application and Availability. This allows you to choose a more OEM-style look or a brighter colour for a modified build.
