I use bog standard copper/copper-nickel pipe which I guess must be 3/16, and standard 10mm male fittings in most cases apart from where 12mm is required.

you dont say for what in the rear of a gti6 though LOL

3/16 pipe is what you need, most motor factors sell it.

And you need m10x1 fittings. apart from 2 on the biaser they are m12 as stated

Technically they aren't M10 or M12, they are 10mm fine thread (1.0 threads per mm)

M10 and M12 are typically 1.5 and 1.75 threads per mm respectively.

That's still M10, it's just M10x1.00.

M just designates the metric standard thread form. Razz
