Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure you have the correct flare nut wrench for the specific size and thread type (e.g., 3/8" UNF x 24 TPI, 10 x 1.00 mm) to avoid stripping the threads. Clean the ends of the brake line and the receiving port before installation. Thread the appropriate brake nut onto the brake line firmly by hand first, then tighten with a flare nut wrench. Ensure a tight seal without over-tightening.
Compatibility: These nuts are designed for 3/16-inch brake pipes. While the kit includes various thread sizes (e.g., 3/8" UNF x 24 TPI, 10 x 1.00 mm), always confirm that the thread specification matches your vehicle's brake components (master cylinder, wheel cylinders, proportioning valves, etc.) before purchase or installation.
Care: Store the brake nuts in their original partitioned box to prevent contamination and ensure organization. Keep the box in a dry environment to prevent corrosion. Clean any nuts with a dry cloth before use if they have been exposed to moisture.
