Hi guys;

Simple question - I'm rebuilding an old specialty mill that has a one-shot oiler, an Asian copy of the standard 80's bijur type, by a company called "flyhorse"

It works OK, but all the oil lines on the machine are rotted, and I have to replace them.

This machine uses a metric compression fitting that I'm not familiar with. (To be frank, I'm not terribly familiar with any compression fittings, hydraulics are not my thing).

It's a 4mm tube with a 6mm flare ridge about 6mm back from the free end. A free spinning 8mm nut drives it into mating fittings on the oil manifolds.

Please see the attached pdf for more accurate information.

Some of these fittings are salvageable, but some are missing, so I need to find some more of these parts.

The problem is I don't know what they're called, and this is one of those cases where without an exact name, Google is a spectacular failure (no matter what I try, I get about 3 million hits for farm tractor fittings - not particularly helpful).

Nobody in town knows what they're called either.

Anybody know what these things are called, and even better, where I can get a handful?
