I'm getting myself sorted out to make up some brake pipes. 3/16" pipe I get, metric M10 nuts, but which thread size?
One site I'm looking at has M10x1.0 and M10x1.25... So, it would be good to get an answer to that - but it would also be good to be pointed in the direction of where such detailed info can be found? I did try a couple of searches, but couldn't find this specific detail. Ta. Edit - and which flare type?? SAE or DIN?

All M10x1 except for some early master cylinders which have M12 on one port.

Thanks Steve - that's a relief! The site I was on said that M10x1.0 was the most popular sized male fitting, so I just went for 25 of those.
Pretty sure my master cylinder is the newer version with the same fitting.
