Replacement bleed nipple supplier?

[scubapics]

I'm about to do a brake fluid change and thought I'd replace some of the brembo bleed nipples that have rusted over a little. Does anyone know of a supplier where I can get some stainless steel ones that fit the brembo? Does anyone know what size the brembo ones are?

 

I think they are M10x1.0 but what length?

 

Thanks,

Jim

Save yourself some cash.

If the standard ones are only a little tarnished, then use some very fine emry paper to take off the surface corrosion. then use a little Autosol to shine up. Sorted.

 

zmanalex would be able to supply original brembo ones I would think.

Yip! Plenty in stock, however as Lexx has suggested, a clean up is the way to go

Anyone know the exact length of these? Mine are beyond a clean up, they are a bit rounded and need replacing

If nobody knows the exact sizes I guess I will have to go somewhere that can find out or take one out and measure it properly... They are apparently the exact size of the STI bleed nipples but I don't want to take a chance and cause any damage

I wouldnt get them things IMO. I was going to get some too as I hate bleeding brakes but after reading reviews 70% of people say they are rubbish.

Do we still have these? Did he have a clipboard?

 

I've had a little look online and it appears that the majority of brembos are an m10 thread, I'll pop one of mine out & measure it if you want? But perhaps give Hi spec ms a ring first

Cheers Darren, yeah all the links I have seen say m10 but I need to know the exact length too

 

WIll give Hi Spec a call Monday and try and get down there Tuesday if poss, thanks for all the help, just well it was flipping freezing yesterday at least it made finding the nipples easy

[Darren-B]

As I said if they don't know the length of the nipples off hand I don't mind getting one of mine out purely for measurement purposes
