Hi guys I need need m10x1.00 x m10x1.00 male-male bulkhead fittings I can't seem to find any. The only ones I can find are m10x1.00 x-3 an. I only have a single and double flaring tool but for -3an fittings you need a 37 degree flaring tool which I don't have. Any help would be much appreciated cheers

Have you got a stock photo. I have 2 lines here that I have no use for. They came off a 13/16 mc. The got to and from the proportion valve.
 
These are fittings so I can run brake lines through the bulkhead. Cheers anyway
 
What are you trying to do? I looked at mcmaster.com and couldn't find exactly what you wanted.
You might have to do what Dave Benson said and just run the uncut line through the firewall and use a grommet.
 
Hi Chris, I'm doing the same thing myself and was about to go on Torques UK ebay shop to buy my brake hose fittings when I came across this.

I thought it was possible to just use -3an bulkhead fittings with a normal flaring tool then get -3an hose fitting?

Do you need the m10x1.0 fitting to go from the brake master cylinder out to the first fitting before the copper pipe / ptfe / stainless ???

Yes mate you need m10x1 fittings for master cylinder and all brake pipes. As for the -3an fitting they require a 37 degree flare and the m10x1 fittings require a 45 degree flare so I'm not willing to take the risk with them.
