no just self tappers it holds on my dads 1200hp car so it shall work on my wind up toy ha and i thought the hard line would look better in my opinion. shows your quality of work, little more thought then two ends and flex it to it. Just got the call that my wilwood drag brake kit came in excited running out of parts to install.
