NiCopp is more corrosion resistant than the old steel brake line and it's easier to form.

Eastwood used to sell these for around $35 They're asking $80 now.
I see them on Amazon and eBay for around $38.


I have the Mastercool hydraulic flaring tool. The big kit costs just over $230 so it's not for everyone but it works very very well. It's not just 45° brake line. It forms other steel, stainless, & NiCopp to fit the Jiffy Tite transmission & oil cooler sockets and forms GM fuel line ends as well as the 37° Brit brake line taper.


Home Depot carries a Husky or Klein 89030 tube bender for around $35-40.


I have an old set of tube bending pliers I picked up from a flea market back in the late 1970's. They look something like this. They're good for making tweaks to bends and tighter radius bends.
