Default Met my Match - (Double Flare Disaster)

Very not recommended but I have repaired many brake lines using
compression fittings and flexible brake line tubing..
Never had a single leak or defect.



I would not have a problem with a quality compression fitting like a
Swagelok. It is certainly as good as a flared fitting provided it is
installed properly.
