I'm hung up on installing 3/8" 5052-0 aluminum fuel line in my right wing. This is stopping my progression to closing the right wing. What fitting do I need to pass through the rear spar?

Thanks in advance

I used these. You'll have to order the nut as well.  I used solid aluminum line in the fuselage to the front seat bulkhead then braided stainless steel lines in the cockpit and in the wings.  Make sure you use an aircraft flair tool to get the right angles on the flair!

Thanks for your help.

The fittings that pass through are normally called bulkhead fittings.

Thanks for your help.

You might consider posting the model aircraft you are building. Otherwise it is difficult to give you helpful advice.
