The OE Match Brake Line Banjo Bolt is a replacement hydraulic fitting used to secure a banjo-style brake line connection on selected classic Porsche models.
Fits:- Porsche 356 /A/B 1.1-1.6 01/50-12/63
- Porsche 911 Turbo 3.0-3.3 01/75-07/89
- Porsche 914 1.7-2.0 01/69-02/76
Diagram Ref No 16
Unlike a conventional solid bolt, a brake banjo bolt incorporates an internal fluid passage. When installed through the brake-line banjo fitting, it both secures the connection mechanically and allows pressurised brake fluid to flow through the joint.
Because the component forms part of the hydraulic braking circuit, its threads, internal passages and sealing surfaces must remain in excellent condition. Corrosion, thread damage, blocked passages or damaged sealing surfaces can result in brake fluid leakage or unreliable hydraulic operation.
What This Product Does:
The banjo bolt performs two important functions within the braking system: it mechanically secures the banjo fitting and provides a passage for hydraulic brake fluid.
It is designed to:
- Secure the brake-line banjo fitting in position.
- Allow pressurised brake fluid to pass through the connection.
- Form part of a sealed hydraulic brake circuit.
- Maintain correct brake-fluid delivery to the connected component.
- Provide a secure connection under repeated braking pressure.
- Replace a corroded, damaged or unreliable original banjo bolt.
- Support correct restoration of the braking system.
- Help maintain leak-free operation when installed with the correct sealing components.
Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
A banjo bolt does not normally wear in the same way as a moving mechanical component, but age, corrosion, overtightening or repeated removal can damage it.
Possible signs that replacement is required include:
- Brake fluid seepage around the banjo connection.
- Wetness around the bolt or fitting.
- Falling brake fluid reservoir level.
- Soft or spongy brake pedal.
- Increased brake pedal travel.
- Visible corrosion on the bolt.
- Heavy rust or pitting.
- Damaged or stripped threads.
- Rounded or damaged bolt head.
- Damaged sealing faces.
- Bolt no longer tightening correctly.
- Cross-threading.
- Internal fluid passage becoming blocked by contamination.
- Evidence that the bolt has been overtightened.
- Brake fluid leakage appearing after the connection has been disturbed.
Any brake-fluid leak should be investigated immediately.
Why Replacement Matters:
The banjo bolt forms part of a safety-critical hydraulic circuit.
When the brake pedal is pressed, substantial hydraulic pressure is transmitted through the brake fluid. The banjo connection must remain securely fastened and completely sealed throughout this pressure cycle.
Replacing a damaged bolt helps restore:
- Reliable hydraulic sealing.
- Correct brake-fluid flow.
- Secure brake-line attachment.
- Consistent brake pressure.
- Correct pedal feel.
- Long-term braking-system reliability.

Sold each, 2 pieces needed per car
Fits:
Porsche 356 B/C 1.6L 01/1959 - 12/1965
Porsche 914 1.7L-2.0L 01/1969 - 02/1976
Diagram ref no 41
Installed at the master cylinder brake outlet, the banjo bolt clamps the banjo fitting in place and allows brake fluid to pass through its drilled channels under pressure. Because it sits in a high-pressure circuit, correct fit and condition are essential for leak-free operation.
Old banjo bolts can corrode, round off, or suffer sealing-surface wear, which increases the risk of brake fluid leaks and loss of hydraulic pressure. Replacing with a fresh bolt helps restore a secure connection and supports safe, reliable braking.
When to replace:
• Brake fluid seepage around the banjo fitting/master cylinder
• Corrosion, damaged threads, or rounded bolt head
• During master cylinder replacement or brake line refurbishment
• When rebuilding a classic brake system using new lines/fittings

Diagram ref no 11
Although small, this connection piece forms an important part of the hydraulic braking system. A secure, correctly sealed connection helps maintain brake fluid pressure between the rigid brake pipe and associated hydraulic components.
What Does the Brake Hose / Line Connection Piece Do?
The connection piece provides a secure joining point within the vehicle's hydraulic brake circuit.
When the brake pedal is pressed, hydraulic pressure generated by the master cylinder must travel through the brake pipes and flexible hoses to the brake calipers or wheel cylinders. Every connection within this system must remain securely sealed to prevent loss of brake fluid and hydraulic pressure.
Why Is It Important?
The braking system relies on a closed hydraulic circuit. Even a relatively small leak at a brake line connection can result in fluid loss and reduced braking effectiveness.
A correctly fitted connection piece helps:
- Provide a secure brake hose/line connection
- Maintain the integrity of the hydraulic brake circuit
- Prevent brake fluid leakage at the joint
- Maintain correct factory brake line routing
- Provide the correct connection when replacing brake pipes or hoses
- Restore the original brake system during a classic Porsche restoration
Because it forms part of a safety-critical hydraulic system, the fitting and surrounding brake lines should always be inspected carefully during brake servicing.
Why Does It Fail?
Metal brake fittings can deteriorate after decades of service, particularly on classic Porsche models exposed to moisture, road dirt and road salt.
Common problems include:
- External corrosion
- Damaged or rounded threads
- Seized brake pipe fittings
- Damage during removal of old brake hoses or pipes
- Distorted sealing surfaces
- Previous overtightening
- Cross-threading
- Contamination around the connection
- General deterioration associated with age
Older fittings can also become extremely difficult to separate from the brake pipe after many years in position. Attempting to force a seized connection may damage the fitting or adjoining brake line.
When Should It Be Replaced?
Replacement should be considered if the connection piece is corroded, damaged, seized or no longer provides a reliable hydraulic connection.
It is also sensible to inspect and, where necessary, replace
the fitting when installing:
- New brake hoses
- Replacement rigid brake pipes
- New brake calipers
- Refurbished brake calipers
- A replacement master cylinder
- A completely restored braking system
Any evidence of brake fluid leakage around the connection requires immediate investigation.
Checks and Diagnosis
Before replacing the connection piece, inspect the surrounding braking system carefully.
Check the rigid brake pipe for corrosion or damage and inspect the flexible hose for cracking, swelling, abrasion or deterioration. Check the threads and sealing surfaces of all mating components and look for signs of brake fluid leakage.
If the brake pedal feels unusually soft or requires excessive travel, the complete hydraulic system should be checked rather than assuming the connection piece itself is responsible.
After opening the hydraulic circuit, the brake system must be correctly bled and checked for leaks before the vehicle is returned to use.

The OE Match Brake Line Kit is a complete 8-piece rigid brake pipe set for selected Porsche 356 B T5 1.6 models with a single-circuit braking system.
SET OF 8.
Fits:
- Porsche 356 B T5 1.6 01/59-07/62 (LHD Cars)
Designed for left-hand-drive vehicles, the kit replaces the ageing steel hydraulic brake pipes that carry brake fluid between the master cylinder and the wheel braking components.
The pipes are supplied in a form that requires bending and moulding into the correct vehicle-specific shape during installation. They are therefore intended to follow the original Porsche routing once formed and fitted correctly.
What This Product Does:
The rigid brake lines carry pressurised brake fluid through the vehicle's hydraulic braking system.
When the driver presses the brake pedal, the master cylinder creates hydraulic pressure. The brake lines transfer this pressure to the braking components at the wheels.
Their primary functions are to:
- Carry brake fluid under hydraulic pressure
- Transfer braking force from the master cylinder
- Connect the main sections of the braking system
- Maintain a sealed hydraulic circuit
- Allow the wheel brakes to operate simultaneously
- Preserve reliable brake pedal response
Without sound, leak-free brake lines, hydraulic pressure cannot be transmitted correctly through the system.
Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
Possible signs of deteriorating brake lines include:
- Visible surface corrosion
- Heavy rust
- Pitting
- Wet brake pipes
- Brake fluid around unions
- Brake fluid loss
- Soft brake pedal
- Spongy pedal feel
- Pedal gradually sinking
- Increased pedal travel
- Reduced braking performance
- Brake warning symptoms following fluid loss
- Fluid collecting under the vehicle
- Corroded pipe unions
- Crushed or kinked brake pipes
- Damaged protective surfaces
- Pipes rubbing against the body or suspension
Any visible brake-fluid leakage should be treated as a serious braking-system fault.
Why Replacement Matters:
Brake pipes are safety-critical hydraulic components.
Continuing to use heavily corroded or leaking lines can result in:
- Loss of brake fluid
- Reduced hydraulic pressure
- Longer stopping distances
- Poor pedal response
- Sudden brake-line rupture
- Severe loss of braking performance
The risk is especially important on a single-circuit system, where one significant leak can affect the braking system as a whole.
Replacing ageing pipes restores the integrity of the hydraulic circuit and provides a sound foundation for correct brake operation.

- Pedal travelling farther than normal
- Pedal slowly sinking under pressure
- Reduced braking performance
- Damaged or crushed pipe sections
- Kinked brake lines
- Corroded union fittings
- Pipes rubbing against the chassis or suspension
- Damaged protective surfaces
- Visible fluid beneath the vehicle
Any hydraulic brake-fluid leak should be treated as a serious fault.
Why Replacement Matters:
Brake pipes are safety-critical components.
Continued use of badly corroded or damaged lines can lead to:
- Sudden pipe rupture
- Brake-fluid loss
- Reduced hydraulic pressure
- Excessive pedal travel
- Increased stopping distance
- Severe loss of braking performance
This risk is especially important on a single-circuit brake system, where one major hydraulic failure can affect the system as a whole.
Replacing deteriorated pipes restores the integrity of the hydraulic circuit.

- Porsche 356C 1963-65
The OE Match Brake Line Kit is a complete 8-piece rigid hydraulic brake pipe set for selected Porsche 356 C 1.6 models with a single-circuit braking system.
SET OF 8.
- Porsche 356 C 1.6 01/63-12/65 (LHD Cars)
Designed for left-hand-drive vehicles, the kit replaces the ageing steel brake pipes that carry hydraulic brake fluid between the master cylinder and the wheel braking components.
The set also includes two steel caliper bridge pipes, making it a comprehensive replacement package for the rigid brake pipework used on the 356 C braking system. Selected sections incorporate close-fitting vinyl protection to help reduce damage from stones, debris and road contamination.
What This Product Does:
The rigid brake lines carry pressurised brake fluid through the braking system.
When the driver presses the brake pedal:
- The master cylinder creates hydraulic pressure
- Brake fluid is forced through the rigid lines
- Pressure is transmitted to the wheel braking components
- The brakes apply and slow the vehicle
The brake lines therefore form the fixed hydraulic network connecting the master cylinder with the front and rear braking assemblies.
Their primary functions include:
- Carrying brake fluid under pressure
- Transferring hydraulic braking force
- Maintaining a sealed braking circuit
- Connecting the master cylinder to the wheel brakes
- Supporting consistent brake operation
- Providing rigid connections between flexible hose sections and calipers
Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
Common signs that rigid brake pipes may require replacement include:
- Surface corrosion
- Heavy rust
- Deep pitting
- Flaking metal
- Brake-fluid leakage
- Wet unions
- Falling fluid level
- Soft brake pedal
- Spongy pedal feel
- Increased pedal travel
- Pedal sinking under pressure
- Reduced braking performance
- Damaged or crushed lines
- Kinked pipework
- Corroded fittings
- Pipes rubbing against the chassis
- Fluid collecting beneath the vehicle
Any visible brake-fluid leak should be treated as a significant braking-system fault.
Why Replacement Matters:
Brake lines are safety-critical components.
Continued use of severely corroded or damaged pipes can result in:
- Brake-fluid loss
- Reduced hydraulic pressure
- Excessive pedal travel
- Longer stopping distances
- Sudden line rupture
- Severe loss of braking performance
The risk is especially important on a single-circuit system, where a major leak can affect the braking system as a whole.
Replacing deteriorated pipes restores the integrity of the hydraulic circuit.

OEMatch Caliper and Brake Lines — Stopping Power, Consistent Control
OEMatch supplies caliper and brake line replacements for Porsche models. This collection covers brake calipers, flexible hoses and stainless-steel braided lines intended as direct-fit alternatives to original parts, selected to restore hydraulic integrity, pedal feel and braking balance for road, restoration and track-related use.
Available Types- Brake calipers (replacement and refurbishment items)
- Flexible rubber brake hoses for axle connections
- Stainless-steel braided brake lines for improved pressure stability
- Caliper overhaul and seal kits
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts are made by the same company that produced your Porsche’s original caliper and brake lines. OE (Original Equipment) refers to parts matching original specifications for the caliper and brake lines and may be supplied by alternative manufacturers. Aftermarket parts offer alternative options, sometimes with enhanced features or better value. OEMatch supplies non-OEM caliper and brake lines engineered as direct-fit alternatives to OEM parts, made to original-spec dimensions and tolerances for Porsche models.
Calipers convert hydraulic pressure into mechanical force to press brake pads against discs, while brake lines transfer pressurised fluid from the master cylinder to each caliper. Both must withstand heat, pressure and environmental exposure to maintain consistent pedal feel and balanced braking across the axle.
Benefits Include- Restores full hydraulic braking performance and pedal consistency
- Reduces the risk of fluid leaks and pressure loss
- Offers corrosion‑ and heat‑resistant options for longevity
- Corrosion of metal components and fittings
- Degraded seals or seized pistons within calipers
- Cracked, bulging or damaged flexible hoses
- Contaminated or degraded brake fluid accelerating internal wear
Maintaining calipers and brake lines in good condition is essential for safe, predictable braking on Porsche models. Replacing worn or damaged items restores pedal feel, preserves braking balance and reduces the likelihood of sudden fluid loss or uneven braking that can compromise control.
Advantages- Direct-fit replacements engineered to match original dimensions and tolerances
- Options suited to restoration, road use and higher-load applications
- Selection aimed at cross-generational Porsche maintenance and repair
These items affect safety-critical systems. Installation should be carried out by a qualified technician following model-specific procedures and torque settings. Use calibrated tools and new fasteners where specified.
