Anyone know what the standard "hard" brake pipes are made of ?

Need to change one of mine, and was going to use the normal copper brake pipe.

YOu can use regular copper if you wish, there's one that's a kind of alloy with mostly copper and something else in it, can't remember what it's called at the moment..... but it's readily available.....and harder than copper...

'cunifer' is the harder less flexible version...................

should be fine with copper

Orignals ones are steel.

If your using a crappy cheap and nasty flaring kit, use the copper.

Can highly recommend the sykes-pickavant flaring tool which will flare pretty much any type of metal pipe you throw at it.
