Repairing brake lines

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.
