Braided lines for 3/16" compression fittings Just like the title says, who makes a replacement brake line for compression fittings (not the stock bubble fittings)? I replaced my line with 3/16" double flares and can't seem to find anything.
Thanks,
Marty

Are you looking for braided hoses with a 3/8-24 IF or are you looking for adapters from 3/8-24 to #3 AN flare?

What I get from this is that you need a brakehose with a 10mm banjo on one end for the caliper. I am not sure what you mean by compression fitting. Common hard tube ends are:
Bubble flare Metric or standard
bevel flare Metric
Inverted flare (most common) metric or standard.
#3 AN
The most typical end is a 3/8-24 threaded inverted flare. Russell has the parts to put together a variety of DOT legal custom hoses. Look here:

Yes I need a standard thread (not sure the exact size...the size that is standard thread for 3/16" brake line). I already have the standard fitting on one side of the brake line as i deleted all of the bubble fittings/stock lines. It is not a AN fitting, I am positive of that. What I think will work is to run the 641291 apaptor which I read as a female inverted flare to a -3 fitting, and then run the 10mm banjo fitting to -3 line. That work?

Yep. Sounds good to me.
