You screw a cutting collar (red) onto the braided hose then insert your juction, bend etc (blue) into the hose opening, this opens the hose a little then tighten down the red collar, mop up blood from aeroquip spikes
MEF do a good price off the shelf, try Brom and Martin etc for comparison though
Hoses that are crimped on are usually OE Ford lines and not really DIY stuff.
