MX5 Mk2 1.6 Braided Brake Hose Set by HEL – Front and Rear

Transform the stopping performance of your MX5 Mk2 1.6 with this complete HEL braided hose set for front and rear. Expect a firmer, more precise pedal, stronger initial bite and consistent braking on fast road and track day use. This performance brake hose kit replaces ageing rubber flexi pipes with a PTFE lined, steel overbraid construction that resists expansion under pressure for confident, repeatable stops mile after mile.

Built by HEL Performance with stainless 303 and 304 fittings swaged to a hard drawn tensile stainless overbraid and a PTFE inner core, then sleeved in a durable PVC outer, this hose set delivers durability in UK weather, excellent heat resistance and long term reliability. It is a straightforward upgrade that fits in place of the factory flexi lines and is compatible with all common brake fluids. Backed by the HEL Lifetime Warranty for total peace of mind.

Why this HEL hose kit is a smart braking upgrade

• Noticeably firmer, more responsive pedal feel for better modulation and control
• Resists hose expansion under hard, repeated braking to help reduce fade
• Can help shorten stopping distances in emergency braking
• Direct swap for OE rubber flexi pipes – no permanent modifications required
• Stainless fittings and braid for excellent corrosion resistance
• Suitable for fast road, daily driving and track days
• HEL Lifetime Warranty included

We run HEL braided hoses on our own builds and on many customer cars. Feedback is consistently fantastic – firmer pedal, better bite and rock solid confidence when pushing on.
