Excellent brake line!
I purchased this for a 2002 Ford F-250 Super Duty. I had a brake line that rusted out and I lost brakes .... on a curvy mountain road in the dark!!!! Thankfully, I have a manual transmission and was able to creep it home. This line bends easy enough and I know it will not rust in the future. My only suggestion is that you should buy a QUALITY flare tool. I went through several different brands of flare tools until I found one that worked. They are not all made equally.

Easy to bend into shape
This Cu-Ni tubing is soooooo much easier than steel brake tubing to bend into complicated shapes. Also, no matter what type of flares you need on the ends, this Cu-Ni tubing works really well for me with the various flaring tools. The photo shows a tube I made by copying a damaged original. For most bends, you can bend it with your fingers, without the aid of a bending tool. But a bending tool might be needed for tight bends, especially on the 1/4 tube size (note that the tube in the photo is 3/16 size, not 1/4). It is a bit expensive, but worth it if you have to make complicated tubes.

Needed to replace all of the brake lines on my truck. I wasn't looking forward to it but it's nice not having that uncertainty in the back of your mind wondering if your brake lines are going to burst during your next emergency stop. These are so easy to bend by hand, even short tight bends are super easy. Stainless would look nicer I'm sure but trucks are made for work not pretty brake lines. Flaring them is a piece of cake as well. I was curious how these would look after some time, they do get that blue/green copper discoloration after being exposed to salt but it wipes right off. If you want to win a car show, go stainless, or polish these up with some scotch brite pads. For ease of installation and advertised corrosion resistance, these are tough to beat.

Worked great.
I purchased this big roll because we work on C10's all the time. My 15 year old son learned how to make flanges and splice brake line together. It was easy for him to bend without kinking the line and very easy to make flanges with. This is a nice product for the money. Only time will tell if it will hold up. Was installed on my 1968 GMC 1500 V8 long bed 6 lug with drum brakes.

Easy to Work and Corrosion Proof
I purchased 3 rolls of this to replace the brake lines on my RV. It is the same as the NiCorr tubing available in most auto parts stores. With a tubing straightener, it came out perfect and ready to use every time. It was easy to work with, but still plenty strong for the application and meets all DOT specifications. Why try and work with something like stainless steel when you can get equal durability with something easier to work with.

good replacment brake line
I started replacing the brake lines on my truck due to a failed original line. Initially I was getting them at a local auto parts store, but they were pretty expensive.. When I realized how much line you really need to do the whole job I started looking around and found this product much cheaper than the local store had it. It is very easy to work with for bending and flaring the brake line. I was able to re-use the tube ends off the original lines, mostly because they were hared to find. My truck is an 2001 GMC Sierra, and I would say that this product did about half the truck. If I was starting from scratch I'd defiantly want 2 of these to get the 7 lines made on the truck, plus some fittings to make unions, as some of the lines are much easier to install if you split them in half. Over all a good product and everyone says you'll never have to do this job again if you use this material.

Good brake line
Used this one my whole truck. Was easy to flare and shape. Holds up to pressure as well. Love this stuff and this was a great value. A parts store would have costed me over $100.

This stuff is the best
This stuff is the best. Easy to cut, easy to bend and super easy to flare. Plus it'll never rust. I'm never going to use steel brake line again. The 25-foot coil was more than enough to replace the entire line running to the rear of my truck, and I added the Stainless Brake Line Protector to protect it from debris and abrasion in the areas where it's not clipped to the frame.
