Steel 3/8in-24 Banjo Bolt

The Steel 3/8in-24 Banjo Bolt from AEROQUIP is an essential component for high-pressure hydraulic brake and fuel line systems in performance vehicles and motorsports applications. If you're building a custom suspension setup, upgrading your braking system, or restoring a classic muscle car, this banjo bolt serves as the critical pressure-rated fitting that connects braided steel lines to caliper ports, master cylinders, or proportioning valves. Its compact, precision-engineered design makes it indispensable for any mechanic or enthusiast working with aftermarket hydraulic systems where reliability and leak-free operation are non-negotiable.

Manufactured from steel with a 3/8-inch 24 TPI (threads per inch) specification, this banjo bolt features the dual-port design that allows pressurized fluid to flow through a 90-degree angle fitting without dead spots or turbulence. The 3/8in-24 thread pitch is the industry standard for modern performance brake and fuel systems, ensuring compatibility with contemporary aftermarket components. AEROQUIP's reputation in aerospace and motorsports hydraulics means this fitting undergoes rigorous quality control to handle sustained pressures well beyond street applications, making it suitable for track-focused builds and extreme duty cycles.

Anyone upgrading to a dual-master-cylinder brake system, installing adjustable proportioning valves, or converting to braided steel brake lines will need multiple banjo bolts to complete the job properly. This fitting pairs with AEROQUIP-specification washers (sold separately) and works seamlessly with industry-standard 3/8in-24 brake ports found on Wilwood, Baer, and OEM performance brake components. For street rods, drag racers, road course competitors, and DIY fabricators, stocking several of these bolts ensures you have reliable spares on hand—a small investment that eliminates downtime when fluid connections demand immediate replacement.
