Default brakeline fittings

i am installing a matco parking brake and i need a source for straight fittings. i can't figure out if acs will fit 1/4''od / 1/8'' id lines. vans probably has them but i don't know what they mean ''straight push in '' when they describe their angled as ''brass elbow'' or something like that but no ''push in'' in the description.
can anyone tell me the ''straight push in '' will work?
thanks, bob noffs

Default Try Aircraft Specialty

Bob,

I installed the Matco parking brake as well. I opted to go with Aircraft Specialty brake lines at the pedals, and had them put together a kit for me that could adapt to the Matco parking brake. However, because the fuselage was already completed, used Van's poly brake lines from the Matco parking brake to the landing gear mount ... so they have those fittings available and will know exactly what you need.

Happy building,
