Braided brake lines

Post by eefy »

Okay I’ve seen reviews on here about the Groodridge brake lines like these-

That although the lines are good the unions to the ends can corrode.

So my query is has anyone used these HEL ones and are they any better???

Heath,

Ask them what material is used for the unions.
