FS 4m 8mm copper tube - Sold to stevegough

I havent unrolled it to measure, but there are 4 and a quarter coils, 330mm diameter, so I make that a good 4m.

Are you sure SVA allow Table W Copper for fuel lines??
I was under the impression they wanted Kunifer to avoid vibrational work hardening....

Although a risk, I don't believe anybody on this forum or at Dax has had an issue with copper lines. At VOSA they judge the lines to be fuel proof and do not require any certification as far as I am aware. Using rubber p-clips and considering the mileage these cars do, I wouldnt be surprised if the copper lasted the lifetime of the car.

So in short, nothing to worry about as far as VOSA, and IMO builders, are concerned.

I recall someone either on here or Pistonheads who got an SVA fail with 8mm copper fuel pipe.
The reason I remember this is because it's exactly what's on my son's Velocity in the garage and I was intending to replace it before he goes for test (in about 30 years )
