Whats your reasoning? They are very expensive and usualy more exclusivly used on motorsport and military use.

We use these at work quite a bit, the best way to use them would be to basically get two hoses to replace a flexible section, that have JIC/AN style 37 degree cones female threads in the middle so you can put the dry break there.
I wouldn't recommend their use for brakes though, as they can sometimes fail/ leak and if that happens it's not going to be fun.
Plus for the cost of them you don't really gain anything, you would also need to have hoses made up which isn't that cheap.
Just as an idea the sets we use at work (Staubli and Parker Stratoflex) can cost up to £1000 a pair haha
