Belated thanks to those who replied to my questions about the fuel lines recently (I want to replace the lines in my TR6). I have since learned about flaring metal lines (haven't bought the tools yet

I *think* these are called brass compression sleeves here in North America. They are called brass olives in England. You can get them from most any plumbing supply store. They are about 25 cents each

I think you will find that the people in the hardware store will know what you are talking about if you tell them you want a "ferrule". That is the familiar plumbing term for the product. Joe Curry '

At the risk of repeating something that has already been said (I have not been following this thread religiously), compression fittings should never be used on brake lines - they are not designed for

Michael, I think the reference here is for Fuel Line applications. Since they never exceed 20 psi or so (that is with an Electric pump), the fittings would be fine. The common use for this type compr

<bunchastufdeleted> What is the definition of a compression fitting? To me it seems that all the seals involving flares use some form of compression of two metals against each other. I assumed that

Peter, I think the term "compression fitting" refers to the fact that the Ferrule fits over the line easily until it is tightened into place. By tightening the fitting, the ferrule is compressed in p

Here goes! The generally accepted definition of a compression fitting, in my experience, is one that relies on the frictional force between the compression sleeve, or olive, and the tubing, to hold t

Webster's "New Collegiate Dictionary" defines Ferrule:1. A ring or cap usu. of metal put around a slender shaft (as a cane or tool handle) to strengthen or prevent splitting 2. A short piece of tube
