sujetar las lineas
Explanation:
Como ya he dicho, las lineas se inmovilizarían si tuvieran vida propia. Además una brida lo que hace es sujetar, la inmovilidad es su consecuencia en todo caso. La otra respuesta no me parece mal, pero creo que esta esta mejor.

inmovilizar las líneas


Explanation:
To "hobble" es aplicar un "hobble", o sea, un dispositivo para inmovilizar las líneas, una brida. Así que "hobble" es verbo aquí.

neutral  josecarmona: ¿Podria ser mas adecuado "sujetar"? Es lo que hace una brida. Por otra parte inmovilizar parece mas apropiado a para algo que tiene vida propia. ¿Que me dices?

  -> Hm.... Sí, pues la verdad es que tienes razón. Por ejemplo estos "hobbles" es lo que se pone a los caballos. Buen punto. ¡Y gracias!
agree  Pablo Grosschmid: como es sujetar muy fuerte, inmovilizar me parece perfecto

conectar / fijar / asegurar las líneas


Explanation:
conectar / fijar / asegurar las líneas correctamente / apropiadamente / debidamente

According to the text below and photograph (see figure 8 of the following link http://www.osha.gov/SLTC/etools/oilandgas/drilling/casing.ht...
I believe that hobble is used to mean hitch / or connect

Potential Hazards:

* Being struck by high-pressure lines flailing if not secured properly.

* Having a high pressure connection failure caused by mismatched or excessively worn hammer unions.

Possible Solutions:

* Hobble high-pressure lines properly.

* Use proper equipment inspection techniques to include hammer unions (Note: This is a particular problem with 602 and 1502, as they will couple but will not hold beyond the lower pressure rating number).
