    m11 bleed nipples

    Is it possiable to get 11mm thread bleed nipples, self threading would be good.

    cheers.

      if this is a damaged caliper I would recommend getting it professionally done by a machine shop mate, brakes are not an area to bodge on IMHO. There are various options to sort it and won't cost the earth

          Yes its for a damaged caliper, only found it when i put every thing on the car went to bleed the system and found the nipple was loose in the thread, i repaired one already just re tapped it and fitted new nipple did not see the other one Now iv no car until i can get it done, and start new job tomorrow bummer was looking forward to trying these new brakes.

            It won't take long to sort it Ray, as JP says a helicoil would be a quick & easy solution. Find a local machine shop and give them a call
