Hours and hours of frustration and unnecessary expense (and RISK!) and you lead me right to the answer in 5 minutes! On a boat with twin 454's, weeping stainless fuel lines are a HUGE problem! THANK YOU!
Best eight minutes I spent on TH-cam in a long time. Replaced a surge break actuator on a boat trailer, had less than three inches of exposed line. Sure enough, I messed up the seat on the adapter dealing with the stubby, stiff line. Wound up buying the washer for $11.99 at a local Grainger. It worked perfectly, have nine spares from a box of ten. Still worth every penny.
I just installed new stainless steel brake lines on my '97 pickup, and have a slow weeping leak at one of the fittings -- luckily, an easily accessible one. I've cranked down as tightly as I dare, and there's still a tiny leak. I think these washers may be just the ticket. Thanks!

Lars said use a flare gasket on the fuel line. This novice had no idea what a flare gasket was. You provided the answer. Thank you.
You sir are a genius. Many struggles with a leaking stainless steel fuel line into an Autolite 2100 solved with a copper flare washer.

What size would you recommend to fix a brake line leak from the master cylinder. It’s a 1967 Chevy impala
Use the seal that is the brake line OD size.
Would it work with power steering lines? I'm having fits with my 73 corvette.
