ok - you can still use the above, but fit a metric union the other end.
If the pipe needs to be 1/4 in, then use a larger union on the BHA4310 which will take it. Just a case of if the master will create enough pressure to activate

What I think you do mean is using the following - copy and paste each parts - and you will get the desired result
BHA4706
C5192A
3H550
233220A
BHA4310
The male union for the BHA4310 is a 7/16 x 20 tpi, and uses 3/16 piping. The bigger 7/16 union uses 1/4 piping, but you don't want that one.
The other end of the pipe can use a standard TM606031
Wow.thanks t everyone who replied, lots of ideas there for me to ponder, I should have mentioned that my Mini is running a 1.8 vvc K Series engine, that makes my clutch which is sat on my gearbox miles away from the clutch master cylinder, that's why using a standard braided, banjo style coupling from a mini no good as it is too short. My options are therefore to run a brake line from the M/Cyl along the bulkhead and then fit it to a bracket mounted near the slave cylinder for the clutch, and then use a flexi braided line from there to the actual clutch. Didn't realise until this thread stated that the reason for a flexihose there at the slave cylinder was due to the vibration at the gearbox perhaps threatening the line, so thanks for that, either that or I will just bite the bullet on pay day and get an extra long braided line specially made up. Thanks again everyone for their input, interesting. just as a matter of thought......if I do manage to concoct a system using a banjo what actual banjo bolt do I use? i mean in length? can I use the banjo bolt that mini suppliers supply when you buy a standard clutch master cylinder braided hose line?
Well if you had said that at the start.
get onto MerlinMotorSport and get the parts you need to make up a full flexy with the ends you need. Or if you know the length you need call them and tell them the length and fittings you need. But it is very easy to do yourself.

" my Mini is running a 1.8 vvc K Series engine"
Ebay's full of £50 lines for MGFs, obviously they'd be a bit long, but you could maybe ask for shorter if they make 'em up in house.
Also https://www.ebay.co....PsAAOSw2s1Urpiz, not clear if it's a generic piccy, again ask.
https://brakeparts.co.uk/ is a useful site - they list info like bore & thread sizes with the descriptions. If it's from an MGF I think the bits are the same as Metro, which in turn operated the same mechanicals as a Mini. I can tell you the Metro clutch master is M12x1 thread.
