Stainless Brembo Bleed Nipples

[Tarticmonkey]

Folks,

As some may have seen I snapped a bleed nipple in a Brembo calliper over the week. This has now been sorted.

This has lead me to think would something this be a worthwhile upgrade? Or will these still have the same issues?

Pardon our interruption...

You will still get galvanic corrosion, but no more or less than what the originals do.
I imagine the car will be someone else's problem by the time they would start to cause a headache tbh.

Thought that would be the case as it is still two dissimilar metals there.

Cheers as always.

After having this happen to mine I usually crack them off every so often to make sure they don't seize up over time. Put some anti seize on there too just to make sure.

Ta, would shite lithium grease do the job for anti seize. I have used it on my coil overs without issue.

Stainless Steel threads can gaul, however, I have never used St Stl in Aluminium so not aware if it will be a problem or not.
