Can someone tell me who makes this brake line bender?

[bustanutley]

And where I can get one?

I hate the multi line size ones, I like that the handles are inline, simple easy to use, can't find it..

I am subscribing to this thread as I want one as well. That multi-size thing is not easy to use.

3/16 is correct for our metric crap right? If I remember right that was the size I used with my flaring tool some years ago.

Yes 3/16 is correct. I've made a bunch of lines with the roll of tube I got from Inline Tube. Their ferrule nuts are really nice as well-as good or better than OEM, which is not something you can say about the stuff from Napa. You want the 10 x 1.0 ferrule nut. They are only $.99 each so get a bunch.

Cool thanks drew, I wasn't too sure how well I could trust the flaring tool as reference.

Oh and here is the instructional link that the pic came from.

Drew, all I could find on their site (www.inlinetube.com) was parts for american vehicles. Did you find metric?

Thanks, Dan

My mistake. It was Classic Tube. Very clunky webpage, but if you hit the "download printable catelog" and scroll to page 76or so you see the 25 foot coils of 3/16 tube, and furthe down are the ferrule nuts. I did not get the stainless but both are available in stainless if your place is rusty.

C3===25 foot coil of tubing $12.50

8036====10 x 1.0 ferrule nut $0.90

Good luck. I thought making lines was easier than I expected. Also, this particular tubing makes cleaner double flares than the stuff from the local parts store.

i really dig my pliers, mostly because i can use them in tight spaces and with the brake line right up against whatever it is i'm matching a bend with.

but thats not what you wanted.
