HEL Performance | Green Light Weekend

A good weekend means coming in to see that all of our CNC Machines have been behaving, as always, all weekend.

What it means is that with 18 machines making our stainless steel fittings faultlessly for the past 48 hours we should be looking at 100k + fittings being washed, dried, checked, bagged and later despatched around the world to our awesome distributors or made into our legendary brake line kits at HEL Performance HQ.

It’s the most important part to our business - it’s amazing how many brake companies simply buy fittings in and assemble them - that’s not good enough for us.

When you buy HEL Performance you buy HEL Performance. We make what we sell - it’s rarer than you think.

So if you are considering anyone else’s brake hoses just ask them if they ‘actually’ make their own stainless steel fittings…

And if you want to know if we do you can actually visit and see it with your own eyes 👀

HEL Performance | The Devil is in the deTAIL

Our little devils tail deserves to be seen in all the right places. From Moto GP to World Superbike, from British Super Bikes to the Isle Of Man TT and on pretty much every road around the world.

The reason can be seen on closer inspection of every fitting we produce right here at HEL HQ in Devon – there aren’t many performance brake line companies around the world that can say that...

If you look at these images of cut aways of our banjo and banjo bolt you’ll see just how much of the good stuff is hidden inside.

We cut a flow ring inside our banjo fitting – most OEM banjos simply have a 10mm hole right the way through and no flow ring. Fine if they have matched the banjo with a bolt with a flow ring. If it doesn’t you wont be getting the fluid through as you should be..

So we also cut a flow ring in our banjo bolts – that way you are assured that if your application requires as OEM banjo without flow ring you will still get perfect flow through the system.

The cutaway of the banjo also shows the three grooves we cut into each and every fitting which sits inside the ferrule / crimp collar. When the collar is compressed by hydraulics to form the connection the hose is pushed into these three grooves – it offers an additional hold point and creates three PTFE o rings which means you can rotate our fittings without interfering with the integrity of the hose. It means you can make on vehicle alterations to get it sitting just right – or exactly how you would like it.

Obviously we always try and get it spot on from the factory but if you want to alter the angle then you can – safely and securely. The Devil, as the saying goes, is in the detail.

HEL Performance Brake Lines – It's what's inside that counts.

We have always been the disruptors. Those who love what we have done and the performance our calipers deliver :

"From a general enquiry call to receipt on my product, I can't fault them. Very helpful and they were understanding of the application to which I needed their product." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Use these on my bike for club racing, and I always have great feel. Superb set of calipers." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Purchased a race bike with these calipers on, easily the best braking performance I've ever had. The brake feels firm and constant through race distance, which inspires confidence." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"We race in thailand under very hot track conditions where many other brands have got brake fade at some time or another.....but since using hel calipers we have never had any issues they are a top racing product so a big 5 stars from us thank you" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Beautiful design and manufacture - my second set of HEL calipers for a reason. Super powerful and consistent from first to last pull." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

HEL Performance | Clean Lines

Many many years ago we designed a ‘mini tee’ piece which was swaged into the hose for the Honda British Super Bike Team.

From that we designed a ‘mini elbow’ so that the whole brake line kit could be mounted on a race bike, which doesn’t have the mounting points of a road bike, neatly and most importantly safely,

The bridge hose sits across the lower yoke to comply with technical requirements and the ‘h’ set up was born.

If you take a look at any other brake line manufacture you will see that they then decided this was a good idea - it is. We weren’t worried - infact we were pleased that another of our ideas had made the industry safer for all.

It makes us very proud indeed - and we are always happy to be the first to the market.

While we are able to lead and others follow, it makes us very proud, when we see competitors hoses with the mini tee and elbow on them.

Often copied. Never beaten.

Fit the original. HEL Performance.

Our good mate Andy Hornby never thought he would be up against a Blackbird at the Isle Of Man TT this year on his Paton....

These riders really are built of tougher stuff. Good luck @42.racing for the remainder of qualifying and the races next week.

Keep her lit.

The Harder The Battle – The Sweeter The Victory

In the early days of his enterprise, Harvey Firestone recognized the importance of motorsports in promoting the safety and durability of his products.

More than 100 years later, "Win on Sunday - sell on Monday" remains a Firestone Tyres tradition.

It’s the same here at HEL Performance – our products are tested to the maximum on track week in and week out. Be that in the British Super Bikes, World Super Bikes, Moto GP or at the Isle Of Man TT.

Our products have been on more Championship winning bikes in the British Super Bikes over the last 16 years than any other manufacturer – 14 BSB Championships infact.

There IS a difference.

It’s because we live, breathe and eat it. Anything we do to improve our products on the road is proven on the track – and that’s the only thing even we cannot stop – Progress. The progress we make is seen and appreciated by the teams and riders and they choose to run HEL. We are also at every BSB meeting with our Race Lab ready to make new brake lines, alter hoses to suit changes to the bike, and supply our billet parts – whatever it takes to keep the show on the road and the riders safe.

Winners choose HEL Performance. The stats say it all. Our 14th BSB Championship since 2010.

We are with you – Always on track.
