No tape, clean cut. The fittings seem to slide right in. Best $36 I spent on my build.

Call them branch cutters, call them anything you like. All I KNOW is that they work perfect. With a cut off wheel the line frays, add tape, still frays. We used this tool during my build. The fittings were easy just to push in - vice using a "vice" to push it in.

i just pissed off and stopped tonight i had been having trouble puttin this last -6 an hose and fitting on and blam next thing i know the outer braided part comes complety off i was so pissed i through the cresent wrench across the garage and it went through the wall do i need anger management or is it a fitting thing?
send it to me ill do it for you... if you precut it all and send me the fittings with the lines il do them for you. but i hope you have the swivel ends so you can twist it to the proper angles. hell pm me and maybe we can work something out..
