Default What size fittings for brake lines?

While building our house I lost my brake lines to my SLP line loc kit. I contacted them and they can't send the lines separate. So, does anyone know what size fittings I can order to finish the kit??

The most common used are 3/16 and -3 an fittings and would imagine the fittings going into the line lock are 1/8 pipe.

My SLP LineLok had 1/8NPT fittings for into the valve and the USA tube fittings on the supplied lines.
The threads on the tube fittings are very similar and easily confused. I keep a 3/8-24 nut and a M10x1.0 nut handy for definite identification.

The layout parts catalog shows use of M10x1.0 fittings also. Since you'll be piping/plumbing from the master and to the ABS block,best to pull those lines and see what was used as far as thread size at the master and what thread size was used into the ABS block.

Im having the same problem.
trying to hook up my Hurst line lock but can find the right fittings.
the fitting at the block is not the same as the fitting on the solenoid and at the master its a larger size fitting.

i been to AZ and the brake lines there do not have the right fittings.
