Nipples

Dodgy title, sorry

But does anybody know what thread form the std brake calliper is ?

I need to refurb my callipers and would like to replace the bleed nipples with stainless steel items.

Cheers,

Simon.

Have you got a source for bleed nipples then? I've tried and failed to find them available separately.

Thanks Rob,

I had look around on the net last night and found a few places but wasn’t sure of the size. Un fortunately I didn’t keep the link. I’ll have another look round later.

Also found some nice caps with retaining loops on e-bay 10 for £2.25 choice of colour.

Cheers,

Simon.
