Wanted to repair my friends ac on a car,fractured tube (not my usual line) but need 8NK to 9.53NK in alluminium.
I have them in brass but can't find a small quantity available ie 3 in the UK,can anyone direct me to a source or supply.
Thanks

i have used brass when needed on alloy but srw will supply you a one off or hrp

It's one of those ugly Chelsea tractors 3 years old that should have a bleedin plough behind it.High pressure pipe goes from the condenser along engine side then across the bulkhead and through to evaporator in one complete section so expenssive and pain in the arse job apparently.
I do have the right size brass fittings but thought ally ones put less pressure on tube
and will not damage pipe when used.

i have never had a issue with the brass when i ran out of alloy fits is it a disco 3?

Replace the whole section with a flexible hose, get two peice flare adaptors and hose by the metre from ThermoKing or Transcold and make up your own hose to required length.
Have similar problem with fracturing ali tubes on trucks.
