This is what the one on my old car is described as. Has two outputs for dual circuit brakes. One takes a 12mm male union, the other a 10mm as used pretty well everywhere else on the car. However, the pipe size is the same
3/16ths to both.I had a pipe rust through. So decided to replace them all. And got a kit of ready mades, specific to the make/model.
Only one of the supplied pipes has a 12mm male - as you'd expect. But this is a long pipe which crosses the car to the LH front caliper - one of two circuits.
The original pipework on the car shows this large outlet going to the balance valve underneath the master cylinder, so a short pipe. No possibility of mixing the pipes up due to the vastly different lengths.
The makers of the kit say it makes no difference if the two are swapped. If that were the case, why two different outlet threads? Which prevents them being swapped?
I don't really understand how a tandem cylinder works. Any experts say for certain if swapping them doesn't matter?
