Midland Industries 12326 Brass Metric Adapter 3/16 X M11

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 12326 is a brass metric adapter fitting designed to connect 3/16-inch female inverted flare lines to M11 bubble male inverted flare ports. It bridges standard SAE inverted flare tubing to metric bubble flare connections, a common requirement when servicing imported or mixed-spec brake and fuel line systems. The adapter measures 1.06 inches in length with a 1/2-inch hex for wrench access, and the M11 side uses a 1.5 thread pitch. Rated from -65 to 250 degrees F, it handles the thermal cycling typical of automotive and light-duty hydraulic applications. Brass construction resists corrosion and is compatible with brake fluid, fuel, and other hydraulic media.

This fitting is used in automotive, light truck, and equipment applications where a SAE 3/16-inch inverted flare brake or fuel line must connect to a metric M11 bubble flare fitting. It is commonly encountered during brake line repair on imported vehicles or when adapting aftermarket components to OEM metric hard lines. Installation is performed by qualified technicians working on brake, fuel, or hydraulic systems.

Key Features

• Connects 3/16-inch female inverted flare to M11 bubble male inverted flare in a single fitting
• M11 x 1.5 metric thread pitch for precise fitment on metric ports
• 1/2-inch hex allows standard wrench installation without slippage
• Brass construction provides corrosion resistance and compatibility with common hydraulic fluids
• Temperature rated from -65 to 250 degrees F for reliable performance across operating conditions
• Compact 1.06-inch length minimizes space requirements in tight line routing

Compatibility

Designed for brake, fuel, and hydraulic line applications requiring an adapter from 3/16-inch SAE female inverted flare to M11 bubble male inverted flare metric connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed technician familiar with brake and hydraulic line repair procedures. Always depressurize and bleed the system before disconnecting any line fittings. Use a properly sized flare nut wrench to avoid rounding the hex. Brake system work must comply with applicable vehicle safety regulations and manufacturer service procedures.
