An 8mm spanner is required to fit and tighten these M8 bleed screws.
These screws are M8 x 1.25 x 35mm and are specifically noted for Citroën applications. Compatibility with other brands should be verified based on the exact thread size, pitch, and length required for your vehicle's brake system.
It means these bleed screws are designed to be a direct replacement for the original equipment manufacturer's part number 121006, ensuring similar fit and function.
This set includes five (5) brake bleed screws.
While the screws themselves are metal, they are specifically designed for brake fluid systems. Their suitability for other fluid types would depend on compatibility and sealing requirements.
A bleed screw, also known as a bleed nipple or bleeder valve, allows air and old brake fluid to be expelled from the brake system during maintenance, ensuring optimal brake performance.
Ensure the threads on the caliper/wheel cylinder are clean and undamaged. Gently start threading by hand to check for alignment. Do not force the screw.
Verify the screw is fully tightened (snug, not overtightened). Check that the seating surface on the caliper/wheel cylinder is clean and free from damage. Ensure the correct bleed tube is securely attached.
Double-check the product packaging and the dimensions (M8 x 1.25 x 35mm) against your vehicle's requirements. Contact the retailer if the item received does not match the ordered specifications.
Setup: Ensure the brake caliper or wheel cylinder port is clean and free of debris. Thread the new bleed screw in by hand initially to avoid cross-threading. Tighten gently with an 8mm spanner until snug; over-tightening can damage the component. Connect the appropriate bleeding tube to the screw before loosening it to bleed the brakes.
Compatibility: This set is specifically M8 x 1.25 x 35mm and is noted for use in Citroën applications. Always verify your vehicle's brake caliper/wheel cylinder specifications and compare them to the screw's dimensions (thread size, pitch, and length) before purchasing. It is equivalent to OEM part number 121006.
Care: After use, clean the bleed screws of any brake fluid or contaminants. Store them in a dry place. While robust, avoid prolonged exposure to corrosive elements.
