Rear brake pipe union size?

Post by Oldmogman »

Does anyone know the thread size for the brake pipe union that screws into the steel banjo connector on the rear brakes?

Would it be the same thread and size as the tapped hole in the cylinder? (I have a spare cylinder to hand but not the steel union that holds the banjo, so I can't check it before going to the motor factor!)

And on a similar note, does anyone know the thread size for the bleed nipples that go into the banjo?

I like to have everything I might need before I start a job!

Thanks all.

Here's a diagram from a disc brake conversion kit from ESM. I have marked up the thread sizes for reference.

Thanks Declan, that's great - now I can get all the bits I need before starting the stripdown!
