Features
- Sold per running metre
- Standard 3/16 inch (4.75 mm) diameter
- Brass - easy to bend and work
- Suitable for manual bending and flaring
- Requires double flare for brake applications
★ Brass brake line offers a good alternative to steel for repairs, with the advantage that the material can be easily worked manually without special bending tools. Note: brass must be correctly flared for a reliable seal.
Installation notes
Requires proper flaring tool to create double flare according to DIN or SAE standard. Ensure correct cleaning of brake line interior before installation. Bend carefully to avoid kinking. Use new flare nuts and fittings for reliable connections.
Compatibility
Standard 3/16 inch diameter fits most WWII and early CJ jeeps. Always check the original diameter of your brake line before replacement. Not suitable for direct replacement of pre-formed complete brake line sets - specific bent sets are available for that purpose.
Historical context
Brass was widely used for brake lines before WWII due to its corrosion resistance and workability, but was largely replaced by steel during the war due to material shortages and production speed.
