Brake Pipe Clips

[Candellara]

The brake pipes that run along the N/S engine frame and into the slave cylinder were just cable tied to the engine frame.

Are there specific clips for this? Does anyone have any pictures of how these pipes should be secured?

Thanks in advance

Jason : IIRC they should be P clips with a rubber insert, but a lot of people just use brass type P clips with a rivet. It does not make a lot of difference - the principal function is to prevent sympathetic vibration of the pipe which leads to fatigue

Thanks Chris, but i refer to where the pipes run along the diagonal piece of the engine frame (see pic)

My pipes were simply cable tied to this round section of tube ad naturally don't wish to drill any holes in the frame.

I just wondered if there were any securing clips when it was new, that hold the pipes in place rather than just ties.

Hope this makes sense?

Mine was just held in place at the top and bottom of the round diagonal frame with the same perforated ties used for the wiring looms.

Thanks Chris - that explains things
