Why Should Copper Tubing Be Avoided When Servicing Brake Lines on Mercury Mountaineer?

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.

Also, for an extra cost, upgraded, braided stainless steel Brake Lines can be provided to provide a firmer pedal feel and a more responsive unit that can counter the problems that come with the use of standard rubber hoses that tend to expand when pressure is applied. To those who require better performance for their Mercury Mountaineer when driven in harsh terrains, this upgrade is ideal.
