Disc Brake Hose Cut & Set Tool Barb Press

🚲 Disc Brake Hose Cut & Set Tool (Hydraulic Barb Press)

Say goodbye to leaky brakes and smashed hoses! The ultimate 2-in-1 tool for your home workshop.

Working with hydraulic bike brakes can be messy, especially when it comes to cutting the tough hoses and hammering in the tiny brass connection inserts (barbs/pins). This Disc Brake Hose Cut & Set Tool is a 3D-printed alternative to expensive professional workshop tools. It guarantees a perfectly square cut and effortlessly presses the barb into the hose without bending it or damaging the line.

✨ Main Features

• Perfect 90° Cuts: Features a dedicated cutting guide slot on the right side. Just slide your utility knife or blade through the slot to get a perfectly square, clean cut every time (crucial for a leak-free olive seal!).
• Effortless Barb Pressing: The top screw mechanism smoothly and precisely pushes the Shimano/SRAM pin straight into the hose. No more holding the hose with pliers and hammering the pin!
• Secure Side Clamp: Features a dedicated side-clamping mechanism that firmly grips the slippery hydraulic hose in place without crushing it, giving you total control during both cutting and pressing.
• Compact & Durable: Designed to be sturdy and compact, fitting perfectly in any bike mechanic's toolbox.

🔩 Bill of Materials (Required Hardware)

To assemble this tool, you will need some standard metric hardware:

• 6x M3 Heat-set inserts (4mm or 5mm length)
• 6x M3 screws (6mm length)
• 2x M5 screws (35mm length - can be standard cap head or headless grub screws)
• 2x M5 hex nuts

🛠️ How to use:

1. Cut: Place the hose in the right-side slot and use a sharp blade to cut it perfectly straight.
2. Clamp: Move the cut hose to the main central chamber, align end of hose with the line and tighten the side clamping mechanism to hold the hose firmly in place.
3. Press: Place the brass connecting insert (pin) at the top of the hose. Turn the top M5 screw down to slowly and perfectly press the pin all the way into the hose.
