Copper Brake Line Tubing HYLDG 3/16″ 25ft Kit with 16 Fittings

Description

Product Overview

The HYLDG 3/16 inch copper brake line tubing kit is engineered for professionals and DIY enthusiasts who demand reliable performance in demanding hydraulic environments. Each kit supplies 25 feet of high‑grade copper‑alloy tubing, measured at a nominal wall thickness of 0.028 inch and an outside diameter of 0.19 inches. The copper alloy composition offers superior corrosion resistance, ensuring the line remains functional even when exposed to moisture, road salts, and aggressive chemicals. The tubing is supplied in a convenient 25‑foot roll, allowing installers to cut precise lengths for custom routing without the need for additional splicing or welding. Accompanying the tubing are 16 precision‑machined fittings, including inverted tube nuts of various thread sizes (3/16” 7/24‑24, 3/16” 3/8‑24, 3/16” 1/2‑20, and 3/16” 9/16‑18). These fittings are designed for a tool‑free installation: simply push the tube into the nut until it flares, creating a secure, leak‑free seal. The kit’s lightweight design (1.3 lb total) makes handling easy, while the robust construction ensures the line can withstand high pressure typical of brake, fuel, and transmission systems.

Usage

The versatility of the HYLDG copper brake line tubing makes it suitable for a wide range of applications. In automotive repair shops, technicians use the kit to replace aging steel brake lines, taking advantage of copper’s natural flexibility to route lines through tight engine bays without kinking. The corrosion‑resistant nature of the alloy also extends the service life of brake systems in regions with harsh winter conditions, where road salt can accelerate steel degradation. Beyond automotive use, the tubing is ideal for industrial hydraulic circuits, where reliable fluid transfer under high pressure is critical. It can be employed in fuel delivery lines for generators, marine engines, and off‑road equipment, providing a non‑reactive pathway that does not contaminate fuel. The kit also serves in transmission cooling circuits, where the tube’s thermal conductivity helps dissipate heat. For hobbyists, the easy‑bend property of the copper alloy allows creative installations in custom bike builds, go‑kart projects, and even home‑brew hydraulic lifts. The kit’s 16 fittings cover the most common connection sizes, reducing the need for additional hardware and simplifying inventory management.

FAQ

Can the copper tubing be bent without damaging it?

Yes. The copper‑alloy formulation is specifically chosen for its flexibility. You can bend the tube to the required radius without cracking or kinking, provided you stay within the manufacturer’s recommended bend radius guidelines.

Do I need any special tools to install the fittings?

No special tools are required. The inverted tube nuts are designed to flare the tube automatically when pushed in, creating a leak‑free seal. A simple wrench may be used to tighten the nut if additional torque is needed.

Is this tubing compatible with brake fluid?

Absolutely. Copper is non‑reactive with standard brake fluids, making it an ideal choice for brake line replacements. It also resists the high temperatures generated during braking.

What pressure rating does the tubing support?

The HYLDG copper brake line tubing is rated for typical automotive brake system pressures up to 2,000 psi. For specialized high‑pressure applications, consult the product specifications or contact HYLDG technical support.

How does the warranty work?

HYLDG offers a one‑year limited warranty covering material defects. If you encounter any issues related to manufacturing quality, contact our support team with the purchase details, and we will arrange a replacement or repair as appropriate.
