Does anyone know what kind of fitting goes in here? It’s a 1960 Cadillac rear end, threads are 7/16-20. When I look in there it’s like a funnel shape, not a volcano…. thank you
Not a fitting but style of brake line flare,, Google ISO bubble fitting ID. And tube nut to suit. May be called something different over your way.
All these years and never heard it described correctly as a bubble flare. And DIN,in my world that’s metric
If the thread is 7/16-20, then it's NOT a DIN fitting. Probably takes a normal US thread nut, and just don't do the last step of making a double flare.
Weird... inverse flare is 7/16-24 or 1/2-20. My 1964 Cadillac used 1/2-20 conventional inverse flare.
The plot thickens... I found a pic on ebay of 1960 Cadillac cylinders. One shows a copper washer and one shows sometype of copper fitting down in the hole. I just don't get it.
In the picture of the two side by side, that copper / br*** seat in the hole is a seat for an inverted flare. If I was you I would go to a real live parts store and see what they have or can get. I suspect the right wheel cylinders will accept a normal inverted flare (double flare).
1960 Cadillac had a flex hose from the rear wheel cylinders to the frame, both sides, then to a steel line. Go to Caddydaddy.com and look up the wheel cylinders and hose. Bill
