A peek at the expanded NK brake hose range

A specialist for brake, steering and suspension parts, NK, under the umbrella of SBS Automotive, has added 209 part numbers to its portfolio, which together cover more than 7,300 vehicle applications.

In NK’s core markets, NK brake hoses are now available to the aftermarket for more than 25 million additional vehicles.

With the announced expansion of the product range, the total number of SKUs has grown to 1,680, while market coverage in the core markets has increased to 93.5%.

The new part numbers include many fast-moving items for popular vehicle models. For example, NK brake hoses are available, for the first time, for various versions of the Mercedes-Benz CLA 250, GLA 250 and A220 (2021-onwards). These represent around 1.2 million registered vehicles in NK’s target markets.

The same applies to various versions of the Renault Zoe and Renault Clio (2012 onwards), which are registered more than 2.5 million times, and to many VW Group models (2017-onwards).

The bestselling brake hoses in the product range expansion, however, account for almost 3.5 million Citroën, DS and Peugeot cars built from 2013- onwards, including the Citroën C4 and C5 Aircross, as well as the Peugeot models 308, 408, 508 and 5008.
