Used twice so far on Magura brake hoses. Easy enough to use - I would recommend setting the barb into the hose and driver before closing the hose clamp so the barb doesn't pop out if the clamp snaps shut. Did not appear to damage the hose where clamped. I would also advise storing separate from your other tools as brake fluid may hide on it.
Certified good enough for the home mechanic.
This tool is perfect for shimano barbs but the ones Sram uses are actually threaded and a t8 torx size so this tool doesnt actually thread the sram barb into the hose end it simply presses it in. I have used it like this and it seems to work fine but not how sram designed their barbs to be installed. That being said if you shop around you can find 4mm T8 torx bits to replace the one that comes with this tool (T10) and install the sram barb as described by sram techs. Hope this helps...
