BRAKEQUIP FITTING - BANJO 12 X 8.5MM

Description & Features

Designed for use in hydraulic brake line assemblies, the Brakequip Fitting - Banjo 12 x 8.5mm provides a reliable 360-degree rotatable connection suited to installations where hose routing requires a fixed bolt-through port. The banjo-style design allows fluid to pass through a hollow bolt while the fitting body rotates freely, simplifying alignment in tight or angled configurations.

With a 12mm outer diameter and an 8.5mm bore, this fitting is sized for compatibility with standard hydraulic brake line hose ends within the Brakequip system. Manufactured under the Brakequip brand, it is intended for use with matching banjo bolts and copper sealing washers typical of brake hydraulic circuits in automotive and light commercial vehicle applications.

trying to swap a banjo end on my brake line, is this the one with the 12mm outside and 8.5mm hole?

For a Brakequip hydraulic brake line assembly that calls for a 12 mm outer diameter banjo fitting with an 8.5 mm bore, this matches that sizing and is meant to work within the Brakequip system.

This fitting is sized to work with standard hydraulic brake line hose ends within the Brakequip system, so as long as you're using those, you should be good to go.

fitting rotates freely once installed, right? trying to sort out a tight hose routing on a brake line job and need something that ain't gonna fight me on angle

Answer by: Customer Support on Nov 1, 2025, 7:00 PM

the banjo body rotates a full 360 degrees around the bolt once it's assembled. That's the whole point of this style of fitting. You run the hollow bolt through the banjo eye, seat your copper washers on both sides, and then you can swing the hose end to whatever angle clears your routing before you torque everything down. Makes a real difference in tight spots where a fixed fitting would leave you fighting the hose.
