The only stainless steel braded hose I have seen and sell is braid over Teflon. Normally about 3000 lb's rated. It also normally doesn't expand like rubber.

The only difference is that they are covered in a steel braid so they don't expand as much so your pedal will feel firmer. They are still rubber inside. The main thing is you know they are not 20 years old yet. The old hose I took off you can blow through so it is not easily obvious how it failed but the fact that when I replaced it and the problem has not reoccured would mean that it was failing in some manner.
