Question by: Debbie W on Dec 2, 2025, 9:45 PM

trying to hook a 1/4 female port up to 5/16 line, is this the straight push connect that does that?

For tying those two sizes together in a straight run, it’s a single inline push-to-connect fitting that transitions from a 1/4 in. female port to a 5/16 in. male connection.

Reckon this fitting would work for connecting brake lines without any special tools?

Push connect fittings I've used before sometimes need a special tool to lock the tubing in place. This one work without any of that?

Answer by: Customer Support on Aug 23, 2025, 2:26 PM

No tooling needed at all. You just push the tubing into the fitting and it seats and locks on its own. That's kind of the whole point of the push-to-connect design, quick assembly without stopping to hunt down a tool. It's a real time saver when you're working through a brake line or hydraulic fluid circuit and need to keep things moving.
