REFLECTOR: Brake Lines

[NMFlyer1 at aol.com]

Need some input:  The original brake "Nylaflow" that came with my kit  isn't 
quite long enough for the 173 FGE.  So, I bought some new stuff. They  are the 
same OD, but not the same ID. The NEW stiff is thinner wall and is too  big 
for the compression inserts that came with the kit. 
 
The Original part:  S&L Plastics Nylaflow Pressure Tubing Type  3/16"H SK8201
 
The New Stuff:  S&L Nylaflow Pressure Tubing Type 3/16"T  SK8201
 
I am guessing the "H" is Heavy Wall, and the "T" is thin wall. 
 
The inserts from the factory fit the heavy wall tubing  (that is too  short 
for the airplane). 
 
The thin wall stuff is what the Wicks and Spruce Catalogs say is used for  
brake lines. Spruce doesn't have an insert listed that I could find, Wicks has  
one that says "3/16" part number 2030x4" 
 
What kind of Nylaflow is being used? If it is the thin wall stuff, what is  
the part number for the insert?
 
I either need to order new (correct) nylaflow, or new (correct) fittings.  
any input? 
 
Another screeching stop due to incorrect parts. 
 
Thanks   Kurt
