Re: Flexible Metal Brake Line
In special circumstances maybe, but here in the Upper Midwest, where they are not shy about putting lots of salt on the streets in the winter, the anti-corrosive properties make the difference to me.

Where is the compromise in safety if using the real "CUNIFER"? That's the point of this thread. Hell, Volvo .....one of the most "safety-oriented" new vehicle manufacturers worldwide uses the stuff on new Volvos for several years now. And this stuff is far more likely to survive salty winters far better than the steel stuff found on Americas best. DD |

Re: Flexible Metal Brake Line
I used precut/double faired tubing on my '39 picup. I needed only one extrra joint, as I remember.

Re: Flexible Metal Brake Line
I don't believe there is any safety compromise in using the original quality British "cunifer" nickel/copper tubing from Fed Hill. It is not used on Aston Martin, Jag and Rolls because they compromise components, In those applications it is used for durability because of it's manufacturing process, The import ni/cop crap that bends like a wet noodle maybe be a safety compromise.
