Connect Cupro Nickel Brake Pipe 3/8" x 25ft - 31133

This brake pipe is made from a seamless tubing composed of 90% copper and 10% nickel.

It is suitable for most automotive fluid control and braking systems. However, always confirm that the 3/8" diameter and the fitting type are compatible with your specific vehicle's requirements.

Use a dedicated tubing bender tool designed for soft metal tubing. Bend the tubing gradually, maintaining a smooth radius. Avoid sharp or sudden movements.

Cupro-nickel offers superior resistance to corrosion and rust compared to standard steel brake lines, leading to a longer service life, especially in humid or salty environments.

While cupro-nickel is suitable for fluid control, it's specifically recommended for brake lines. For fuel lines, ensure compatibility with the specific fuel type and system requirements, as different materials may be mandated.

For automotive brake lines, the standard is a double flare. Ensure you use a proper double-flaring tool to create a secure and leak-free seal.

Store the roll in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and corrosive elements to maintain its condition.

Re-flare the end of the tubing, ensuring a clean and consistent double flare. Check the brake fitting for damage or wear and replace if necessary. Ensure the fitting is tightened correctly.

Use a tubing bender to avoid sharp bends. If bending by hand, ensure a gradual radius. Avoid reusing sections that have already kinked, as this weakens the material.

Ensure you are using the correct double-flaring tool for brake lines and that it is in good condition. Make sure the tubing end is clean and properly deburred before flaring.

While cupro-nickel is highly resistant, prolonged exposure to harsh environments or contaminants can cause surface discoloration. Clean gently with a soft cloth. Ensure proper installation to prevent moisture trapping.
