Got an older vehicle with 3/16 brake line and the fitting's shot, will this nut work for that repair?

For 3/16 inch brake tubing with an M10 x 1mm thread, yes, that's exactly what this fitting is built for. The Brakequip BQ9174 is a female tube nut made to handle that specific combination, so it should drop right into a standard brake line repair on a vehicle using that tubing size. Brakequip engineers it for automotive braking systems, so the fit and thread engagement are meant to hold up under the demands of an active brake circuit.
