Which thread for brake union on caliper

Post by DWH »

Continuing to put the front brakes back together. I need to replace the brake union for the metal pipe to the caliper, and remake the short pipe.
Does anyone know what thread the unions should be ? It looks like M10 fine thread (M10 x 1.25) but would like to make sure I order the correct ones.
Thanks

I think you'll find it's M10x1.0.
