Repairing brake lines
Flanging tool for brake lines -VAS 6056- can be used to flange brake lines with an outer pipe diameter of 5 mm without damaging the coating. In certain cases, this enables partial brake line sections to be renewed at less expense.
Working with flaring tool V.A.G. 1356 is not permitted due to the coating and the diameter of the black brake lines.
  Note
t  Brake lines may only be bent to max. 90°, as they otherwise kink or reveal deformations which constrict the line cross-section to an impermissible degree.
t  Preferably separate brake lines at vehicle floor.
t  The position of the adapters must be selected so that these cannot chafe on moving parts.
t  Do not grease spindle; merely clean with spirit.
