I would also like to find some more robust brake line tubing for my L360. That 3/16" nylaflow tubing I got with my kit is really weak looking stuff. The design probably works. Lancair probably figures about 100psi max with that Matco plunger which looks like about 1/2 square inch (assuming a pilot can not put more than 200lbs pressure on each toe brake) However, I think that stuff gets brittle with age, and does not withstand much bending. Also, I think it gets really brittle in the cold, and soft with heat. Does anyone know about that? Is there any advantage to the Nylaflow other than low cost?
