3/8-inch Hydraulic Brass Elbow
3/8-inch hydraulic brass elbow to suit the flowing hydraulic calipers. The elbow has an olive on one end and requires a copper washer to seal the other end.
- Hydraulic master cylinder
- Al-ko Disc hydraulic calipers
- Trojan Disc Calipers
- Hydraulic parts that require an olive seat
Brass elbows change the angle of hydraulic lines into components like master cylinders and hydraulic disc brakes.
When connecting dissimilar metals, use copper washers. For example, when combining a brass adaptor with a Dacromet or stainless caliper.

- Copper Washer
If your disc brakes or hydraulic cylinder leaks, you have likely screwed the 3/8 inch nut on your hydraulic lines directly into a component that requires an adaptor nut and copper washer to complete termination.
Your stainless hydraulic line connector is like to require an olive flange.
Calipers do not have olive flanges; therefore, you need an adaptor nut.
Yes, brass on brass connections should not leak, but it is better to be safe than sorry use a copper washer.

Finally, brass is not a suitable metal for bonding; hence the use of copper washers is recommended for sealing purposes.
