This line is ok. The coating is ok but will get scrapped off if you are not careful. It flares well but the wall thickness is thin. I had to bend it with sand in the line to get a nice bend and I do have a nice handheld bender. The image shows the difference in bend from thicker walked stainless line to this steel line. The steel line has a tendency to flatten out. I would not even consider the line for any bends past 90 with a filler in the line while bending.
