The 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 allows sections of brake lines to be renewed at less expense. |
The use of flanging 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 display deformations which constrict the cross-section of the line to an impermissible degree. |
t
| Preferably separate brake lines at underbody. |
t
| The positions of the intermediate pieces must be selected so that they cannot chafe on moving parts. |
t
| Do not grease spindle; merely clean with methylated spirits. |
