Joseph,
Copper (pure) has the disadvantage that it hardens when stressed
(repeated braking) which can lead to fatigue cracking. I have heard
about such occasions once or twice.
It is also the reason that in some countries it is illegal in automotive
brake applications to use pure copper lines.
I am surprised that apparently the T|V accepts this.
Cheers,
Kees Oudesluijs
