I am about to order and fit "Speed Bleeders" to my NA 1.6
(from Rocket Industries)
I am wanting to know what size are the bleed screws?
I need to thread size + length?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Brilliant product, have used them for years.
There's a fitment chart at the company site itself:

Can I ask how much they are and can you get them locally in Sydney?

I ordered them from the US site and they were really cheap, I think it worked out at A$40 delivered?

Oooh, you're on your own there...I suspect that the clutch bleed nipple might be the same as the one on the rear discs, but don't quote me

The clutch bleeder thread changed at some point (possibly 1.8 release), any old slaves are of one size and any newer ones (or replacements) are the other size - either M7x1 or M8x1... I can't remember which way around though...

I've been using speed bleeders for years, never had a problem with them.

Do you remember what part numbers you purchased

The invoice says:
SB7100
SB8100
Clutch SB7100
I can't remember putting the clutch one on, so I can't tell you if that's the correct number. I forgot i'd ordered one, it's probably sitting in my garage somewhere

Not bad price!
Mine were $7 USD each, but once you add shipping etc you're getting about the same price as ordering them from speedbleeder themselves but the ease of getting them from Repco.
