Garrett_M Posted May 6, 2010 Report Share Posted May 6, 2010 Does anyone know what size the threads are for the brake line inlet on the caliper? I'm assuming they are 1/8npt but i dont know for sure. Any help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdScrip Posted May 6, 2010 Report Share Posted May 6, 2010 M10 1.0 pitch rings a bell. NPT = National pipe thread, pipe thread is tapered so that the threads create your seal. In brake lines the threads are simply pushing a flared end into a receiving flared end of the caliper. As a result, the threads are not tapered and should have nothing to do with a pipe thread.
