Why Should Copper Tubing Be Avoided When Servicing Brake Lines on Ford Explorer?

The use of copper tubing in brake tube repairs or services should be avoided because it demonstrates weakness to fatigue and subsequent cracking while promoting corrosion that results in brake tube failure. The entire section requiring replacement must receive new brake tubes which exactly replicate the original tube type and maintain corresponding size and shape and length. Each installation procedure for hydraulic brake tubing and hoses and connectors must achieve the designated torque level. A brake system bleeding procedure becomes necessary to drain out existing air cells after the installation process.

How to Service and Repair the Brake Line on Ford Ranger?

Service and repair of the brake flexible hose begins by taking off the wheel and tire. The brake flexible hose requires a brake tube fitting removal during which you should torque the fitting to 13 lb-ft (18 Nm) before final installation. The procedure calls for caliper flow bolt removal and discard of two copper washers which must be replaced with new washers at installation time with 34 Nm (25 lb-ft) torque setting. Service of the brake flexible hose requires first removing its bracket bolt then removing the hose while you fasten the bolt to 12 Nm (9 lb-ft) torque upon reinstallation. For the conclusion of the repair process follow the procedure in reverse while performing a bleeding operation on the brake caliper. The system requires fresh brake fluid matching manufacturer requirements because using drained fluid can harm the system through contamination and damage. Follow proper safety measures to stop brake fluid from touching painted or plastic surfaces since such contact could result in damage until the area receives immediate water wash. Brake fluid emergency medical information can be obtained by dialing 1-800-959-3673 in the USA or Canada while the MSDS product document provides further details.

How to service and repair the front brake line on Ford Mustang?

Before installing the new bolt to service front brake flexible hoses the driver must first eliminate the brake caliper flow bolt and discard both copper washers before tightening the bolt to 40 Nm (30 ft. lbs). When installing the brake flexible hose reconnect the tube fitting to the brake hole while tightening it to 17 Nm (13 ft. lbs.). The brake flexible hose can be detached by removing its bracket bolts and reinstallation requires tightening these bolts to 20 Nm (15 ft. lbs.). Perform the opposite steps of installation following the removal procedure while bleeding the brake system afterward. The use of incorrect DOT 3 fluid in brake systems will result in lasting brake component deterioration and make the brakes completely nonfunctional. Brake fluid needs immediate water-based washing from painted and plastic surfaces because it has damaging properties. In case of emergency regarding brake fluid medical needs please contact Ford/Motorcraft products in the USA or Canada at 1-800-959-3673 and obtain the product Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) if available for proper consultation.
