best info i can find is m14x1.5... seems legit as its a standard metric hydraulic fitting. so some 500 psi schrader valves (8 quid a pair) some female 1/8bsp to female m14 x 1.5 and some m14 blanking plugs is the entirety of an individualizing kit. now, finding a female fitting may be hard but using a 1/8bsp male to metric 14 x 1.5 then a couple of female to female couplers.. if i can find the correct fitting without adaptors the total bill will be around 15 quid... rated to 1500psi (500 on valves) or 20 ish if using female couplers. i will report back once its all ordered /apart and find out if they are even m14.. watch this space
