I didn't know these existed! Highly recommended for stainless brake lines:

Good reason to use the copper-SS alloy lines. Very strong, workable and never corrode. What more could you want?Oh, that may save me having to reflare some brake lines. I hate flaring steel lines.
Make sure you anneal the copper gasket before use.I didn't know these existed! Highly recommended for stainless brake lines:
I have found the "easy to bend" feature to be "maybe", depending on how it is done. Every time I have used one of the handy-dandy tube benders, the cupro-nickle line kinks. Wrap it around a socket, perfect!. Gentle bends using hand only, also perfect. No idea why the bender does not do a perfect job. But hand forming is easy and can be neatly done, as opposed to steel lines which are difficult with benders and impossible by hand.Pure copper, yes, but cupro nickle alloy is fine. Easy to bend and flare and corrosion resistant.
No, but have them and wonder about their intended use. Do you use them with benders? Don't otherwise need them.Have you tried using the springs designed for bending tubing? They come in many sizes.
