Stainless or Brass Reverse Metric Flare Nut

I am in the process of manufacturing all new brake lines for my project FC.

I am using seamless extruded stainless steel 3/16" OD tube. I am however unable to find a place to procure preferably Stainless Steel M10x1.0 Reverse Flare nuts, or Brass ones.

All I can find is the plated steel ones, which rust quickly IMHO.

Does anybody have a source for these?

Thanks

I've dealt with trying to double flare steel tubing in the past. They never turned out right.

Check out the Mastercool 71475 hydraulic flaring kit, pricey but you will not have a leaky fitting again! You can also buy an AN/JIC 37 Kit to add onto it, so you can setup your fuel supply/return to accept AN/JIC fittings.
