Need help on which thread size to order for Peel rear brake banjo bolt brake light switch. I need the finer thread form of these choises
M10x1.25mm vs M10x1.mm. Speaking with modern custom brake hose makers go by a M1 or M2 bolt thread designation which don't help my ignorance level.

Which is fine thread M10x1.25mm or M10x1.mm
 
Hello Hobot!
M10x1.0 is the finer thread.
Greetings from metric Germany! :wink:

M10x1.00 mm is similar to 3/8-26 tpi (cycle thread e.g cylinder head bolts)
M10x1.25 mm is similar to 3/8-20 tpi (bsf thread e.g. cylinder head studs)
 
M10x1 (the 1 is the pitch of the thread, as opposed to the number of threads per inch that define an imperial thread) is the common size for hydraulic fittings on the brakes of European and oriental bikes and cars.

Cheers, Jon
 
and 10 x 1.25 is used on all bikes brakes to the best of my knowledge and experience, maybe some Euro bikes use 10 x 1 but I've not come across that. 10 x 1.25 is the common thread for all metric fasteners on all Jap bikes and probably all others.
 
Ok thanks you metric fluent foriegners, the M1 designation is the one Peel needs for rear m/c that's off an unknown brand of MX-dirt cycle. Peel is hard to please and also wants a foot long rear brake pipe wto cross frame sides with a banjo on one end and hose fitting on the other to send flexable hose to caliper. Flashy art deco billet bar m/c has the common modern 1.25 coruser threads and build in pressure swtich. When creditcard payment clears can move a few items closer.
 
All I know is that the pressure switch on the OEM Norton/Lockheed master cylinder is some kind of British thread.
 
Yeah rub it in backskider, karama or the pretty face made me end up with a hydrid hobby horse largely made possible by forced JBW matings. Really turely I got in over my head and past point of no return. Organge hose and master cylinders are two shades golden so what contracting color should I get in anodized -3AN DIY banjo fittings? Frame is white with dayglow organe trim and tank/front guard purple &or green. What could go wrong?

Japanese brake callipers and master cylinders use 10x1.25 and 10x1 pitch threads depending on make and model so check which you have before ordering .....baz
 
M10 x 1.0 is a very common size/thread pitch for metric brake systems

3/8-24 is a very common size/thread pitch for SAE based brake systems.

The Norton uses 3/8-24 exclusively in OE trim, it is not uncommon to pair a Magura master cylinder (M10 x 1.0) with a Norton (3/8-24), these lines are easily made, PM me for details, if interested.

Peel needs a global village to get her idiot up to speed. Bill I'm interested in anyone that can help Peel get past my limits. With the banjo threads id'd I could order or make my own hoses now but holding out on rear for ~foot long pipe off mastercyclinder to custom bend-fit to cross rear of frame with a foot+ of hose run under swing arm to brake. I find banjo end adators with threads at one end- and pipes with male or female threaded ends but not a pipe with a banjo on one end and M10x1.25 hose fitting on the other. So what's my next $tep for brake connections? I have pipes from tractors and fittings and JBW on hand so please help save Peel from me. Btw on a bunch of 1/4" cooper & brass air connections I put on superglue to fill in gaps of hobot handling.

you can get hoses made up for you any length you need or make them up yourself ,also banjos come in all different degrees ,on my bikes i use goodridge and i have them clear plastic coated it stops them damaging your paint or sawing through you frame ,,,,,,,,,,,,baz
 
Baz looks like my easy way out rear, is to buy anodized straight banjo for mc end then drill passage to accept a pipe JBW in with a flare female hose fitting on the far end for hose attachment out to caliper as normal. Credit card accredited again and email shopping 'puter repaired again, so can spend spend spend again.

Thread Count (TPI)
TPI stands for Threads Per Inch. This is simply a count of the number of threads per inch measured along the length of a fastener. TPI is used only with American fasteners. Metric Fasteners use a thread Pitch (see below). In general smaller fasteners have finer threads, so the thread count is higher. For a table of standard US thread counts please see our US Threads Per Inch Table.


Thread Pitch
Metric fasteners are specified with a thread pitch instead of a thread count. The thread pitch is the distance between threads expressed in millimeters (measured along the length of the fastener). For example a thread pitch of 1.5 means that the distance between one thread and the next is 1.5mm. In general smaller fasteners have finer thread so they have lower thread pitch. For a table of standard metric thread pitchs please see our Metric Thead Pitch Table.
