Description
Overview:
The Brake Bleed Screw M6 x 1.00 mm x 26 mm is a small but important service part used to purge trapped air from hydraulic brake circuits. Made from durable metal with a corrosion-resistant finish, it provides a secure seal during normal operation and a controlled pathway for releasing air during bleeding. The M6 fine thread (1.00 mm pitch) and 26 mm length make it suitable for many compact hydraulic brake assemblies found on construction and garden machinery, including brake calipers and wheel cylinders. It helps restore firm pedal or lever feel and consistent braking performance after hose changes, component overhauls or fluid replacement. Manufacturer reference: 305 236. A sensible, low-cost spare to keep on hand for routine maintenance and repairs.
Key Features:
- M6 x 1.00 mm thread and 26 mm overall length for common fitments
- Precision machined seat for reliable sealing under hydraulic pressure
- Durable metal construction with a corrosion-resistant finish for long service life
- Allows controlled venting of air to restore consistent brake performance
- Standard nipple design enables use with a clear bleed hose to minimise spills
- Compatible with typical hydraulic brake fluids used in machinery servicing
- Helps prevent soft or spongy brakes after component or hose replacement
- Straightforward to install and replace with basic hand tools
- Suitable for brake calipers, wheel cylinders and some master/slave cylinders
- Manufacturer reference 305 236 for easy identification and reordering
Typical Applications:
Used during brake maintenance to expel trapped air after fluid changes, caliper or cylinder rebuilds, or hose replacements. Common on compact construction plant, utility vehicles, garden tractors and ride‐on mowers that use hydraulic brakes. Also useful for periodic system health checks to maintain responsive braking in equipment operating in wet or dirty environments.
Also known as:
Often referred to as a bleed nipple, bleeder screw or brake bleeder. Other terms include bleed valve, vent screw and purge screw. These names describe the same function: providing a controlled outlet for air and fluid during brake bleeding to maintain a sealed, reliable hydraulic system.
