I am going to be running new brake lines. I saw a vid. about Nickel/Copper lines. It seems to be very easy to work with.

Does anyone have experience with it?

 

No......but will be watching for your experience!!!!

 

Excellent stuff. a bit pricey but will last a LLLOOOONNNNGGGGG time. Worth the investment. It bends easier, and flares easier too. But be careful it can still kink. Overall much easier to work with compared to standard steel/galvanized line.

 

A big plus in the salt areas of NY.

 

I hope to replace the brake a fuel lines on my 63 Chevy with it this weekend. I'll let ya know how it goes.

 

Pauli3wood is using Cu/Ni lines on his build:

I recently ran all new lines (hard and soft) on my truck wile doing a manual to power brake conversion and used these lines. Very easy to work with and very forgiving. I ordered 50' of this stuff and even having to run from the factory valve on the frame to the new one on the master cylinder, it is enough. If you are in the need of a great flaring tool, check out the Mastercool Flare (71475) makes flaring easy and turns out perfect flares every time. It will also do transmission and fuel lines. So easy to do, my daughter flared almost all of the lines.



I also made a tool to straighten the line. Just a scrap piece of metal and some v-groove bearings off of eBay. Run it through a few time and it is straight and ready to go:

 

Excellent flairs. Great information.

Thanks for the post. Also, that was a great idea for the straightener.
