Fitting Banjo Bolt Mal e 7/16-24 Bolt 23mm

The Fitting Banjo Bolt Male 7/16-24 Bolt, 23mm, is a precision hydraulic line connector designed for automotive brake and fuel system applications where reliable pressure retention is non-negotiable. As a mechanic, you know that banjo fittings are the preferred choice for high-pressure fluid transfer because their compact profile and 360-degree flow path eliminate dead spots that trap air and debris. This male banjo bolt serves as the connection interface between hardline or braided hose assemblies and caliper or master cylinder ports, making it essential for custom brake builds, restoration work, and performance brake upgrades where OEM configurations don't fit your platform.

The 7/16-24 thread pitch and 23mm banjo head diameter specify a standard male connection point engineered to accept -3 or -4 AN hose fittings on the opposite end of a banjo bolt assembly. The compact 0.8-inch width allows installation in tight engine bay configurations common to modern turbo and supercharged platforms where space is limited and routing flexibility matters. At just 0.03 lbs, this fitting adds negligible weight while maintaining SAE-grade hardness and corrosion resistance—critical for brake systems exposed to moisture, salt, and thermal cycling. The precise thread form ensures leak-free sealing when paired with proper AN-spec hoses and compatible banjo bolt hardware kits.

This fitting is ideal for fabricators and mechanics building custom brake kits for track cars, drift platforms, and street performance vehicles where factory brake lines don't route correctly or provide insufficient fluid capacity. It's equally valuable in restoration builds where period-correct brake systems require integration with modern caliper technology. Ensure your banjo bolt hardware kit includes matching sealing washers (typically 11mm or 13mm ID) and verify that both your hardline/hose termination and caliper/master port feature compatible male and female banjo geometries. Always flush your brake system after installation and bleed thoroughly to remove air and ensure full pedal feel before track or street use.
