What's going on here?



the right handbrake cable is rubbing on the brake hardline, sawing its way through. Obviously I need to replace that line now. But why is this happening?

Is the damaged line something a brake place can knock up easily if I take the old one to them?

Thanks in advance for your help everyone.

Take he tube to a brake specialist and they will double flare a new tube to suit,make sure the handbrake cable clears it when you put it back. From the picture the handbrake cable is in the wrong place,check the front pivot/adjustment area.
