Brake Pipe Flaring

[Steve]

Hope someone can help please

I'm going to be making some replacement rear brake pipes for my pals 66 Fury. Does anyone know what sequence I need to use with this machine to get the correct double flare? I will be using 3/16" pipe. I'm guessing its OP1 3/16 followed by OP2 3/16 but would be nice to have a bit of reassurance from someone who has made them recently if possible. I can do some tests and match it to the originals but any advice would be gratefully accepted!

Cheers Steve

Yes, Op 1 & Op 2

Don’t forget to fit tube nuts before flaring

That's brilliant Mark, thank you very much for taking the time to help me!

Enjoy, it is quite a satisfying job, especially with a decent tool like that one, mine is a cheaper version but still works.

And yes, put the nuts on first, I've cut off many a perfect flare to fit the nut!

I've got that T shirt Matt!

I made some for my Polara a few years ago but, as I've had a sleep since then, I forgot what I did to make the correct flares. I changed my old Fury from a single circuit to a dual circuit system and thoroughly enjoyed doing that. Pretty satisfying to see nice new pipes in place

make shure you get correct tube nuts.. no lead in before the thread as far as i can remeber.

work on everything apart from you have 2 special ones for the Master cylinder
