These fittings are used all over Mercedes. I have to make custom lines so I need to know what these are called. The particular fitting here is from a power stearing hose on an 86 560SL

It's a flared end, probably an "inverted flare":

Ummm sorry I offered to help. If you know what it isn't, why don't you know what it is?

It's not a flare fitting - I believe it's called a bell fitting, or something along that line....

Doing a search on bell fitting gives me articles on all the leaks on the Bell/Boeing V-22.

My closest so far looks like a DIN bouble. But all the pictures I find of the DIN bouble are of a much shallower flatter bouble.

Thanks

I'm sorry. I dident mean to be rude. It's just getting a bit frustrating. I know about 5 things that it isn't. But there are about another 5,000 more fittings that it isnt to go through.
