RE: Brake lines

[Sandejas, Ignacio]

I'm only guessing but with all the vibrations in your car that is enough to work harden it... Someone else may be able to clarify...   -----Original Message----- From: Mark O'Conner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, June 13, 2002 5:32 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Brake lines Is that only relevant when bending to form shape!   Once in shape it shouldn't be moving so what makes it harden? ----- Original Message ----- From: Sandejas, Ignacio To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Sent: Thursday, June 13, 2002 5:02 PM Subject: RE: Brake lines something about work hrdening because they are so soft that they eventually fracture. Like when you ben a bit of metal back and forth, it eventually work hardens then breaks... -----Original Message----- From: Mark O'Conner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, June 13, 2002 4:55 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Brake lines Fracturing where?

Got quoted $54 bucks to have the two ends of my brake line flared with fittings! He was gonna charge me $88 to have new ones made out of copper! I made the line out of some left over bundy tube that I had. He took one look at it and said that he wouldn't guarantee if the flare cracked because the material was all wrong! He then suggested copper brake lines. I thought copper was the wrong material to use. I politely said thanks and left. Do you guys reckon he's bumped up the price because he didn't want to do it? It doesn't really matter because I got hold of a flare tool that does double flares. Just need to get the fittings. Does Pirtek ,etc carry those fittings, or do I have to go to a brake shop?
