The stainless tube I work with (.049" wall thickness and seamless) is harder than the standard steel tube I work with. Both the same wall thickness. It is more difficult to bend and flare. I used to stock more stainless as the price difference is almost nothing, but it is definately harder to work with. Now this is just the stuff I had from my supplier, yours may be different. This is just my experience with the tube from my supplier. You may not be wrong. Believe it or not, brake line is of lower quality than the tube I get.
