What size brake hose nuts do I need??

Hi guys,

Does anoyone happen to know what size nuts I need to fit my standard ford brake flexi hoses? They look about 10mm or there abouts but are they a particular thread or anything?

It is for the join basically between my flex and copper pipe. I have made a bracket on the chassis with a hole in it. I am putting the thread on the flex through the hole, then the nut (which I am trying to find) on the other side to fix it to the bracket and then the copper pipe with the female join goes on after that.

So I know it sounds a bit long winded but all im after is the nut size to fit the thread on my flexi hose,

Thanks,

Matt

Pop into a motor factors and ask for some std metric brake pipe nuts. Either male or female as applicable.





Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.

Confirm M10 x 1.0 half nuts





I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1
