    Default Copper lines for oiling system

    Hi Folks,
    I cleaned one of the short oil pipes in my machine with kerosene and a small brush that I was running the entire length of pipe, it took about 10 passes back and and forth to clean it and still everytime I pass the brush it still come out a little bit dirty (perhaps is just the brush that does not clean 100%).
    I decided I am just going to replace the copper pipes with new ones. I have nylon pipe left over from when I replaced the nylon lines, could I use nylon instead of copper or should I just order the copper lines? Thank you!

    Sir,

    The copper lines are there to keep the lines tight to the castings so you have no issue with holes rubbing into them, or the nylon if you used it. Stay with copper. It's cheap and keeps your machine OEM. We have all the copper and fittings you may need. FadalCNC.com | Replacement Parts for Fadal | Fadal CNC Machines.
