     The steel braided hoses I purchased are an Aeroquip product.  The hose
     itself is a Teflon material, as pointed out by the others earlier,
     sheathed in steel braid.  It does not expand, and does not
     deteriorate, hence it's use in road racing.

Pete:
     Can you advise a source for these? I'm doing the brakes right now on 
my (single-system) TR3a, and these sound safer...

     Thanks,

[Actually, most teflon hose with braided cover is NOT legal for highway use
 in the US of A, as the hose does not pass all the DOT tests required.  The
 teflon hose has trouble with the whip test and freeze/thaw cycles.  mjb.]
