I drilled and tapped holes on the rear of the spring for adel clamps to hold the nylon tubes, three clamps per side. The brake cylinders are installed so the fitting is to the rear and the nylon tubes are exposed from the fuselage to the brakes. The installation is cheap, light, easy to inspect and has been trouble free for nine years and 400 flight hours. > From: carlossa52@gmail.com > Date: Mon, 11 Nov 2013 13:35:01 -0500 > Subject: Zenith-List: brake lines > To: zenith-list@matronics.com > > What have people been using for brake lines? > (Not that my project is going anywhere without wheels, but...) > -- Bryan Martin N61BM, CH 601 XL, RAM Subaru, Stratus re-drive. ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 08:35:15 AM PST US From: Bryan Martin Subject: Zenith-List: Re: brake lines I didnt use actual adel clamps to hold the brake lines to the main gear spring, I bought a box of black nylon tubing clamps. I got these either from the hard ware store or Home Depot. I have used them in several places to hold tubes and small wire bundles in place. -- Bryan Martin N61BM, CH 601 XL, RAM Subaru, Stratus re-drive. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message zenith-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Zenith-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/zenith-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/zenith-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
