This product’s description has been automatically translated. Please excuse any mistakes.
A bleed block is a simple, small cuboid that is inserted into the pad shaft of the brake caliper instead of the brake pads during the filling or bleeding process of a hydraulic disc brake. This prevents brake fluid or oil from accidentally spilling onto the pads during bleeding and prevents the pistons from pumping out of the brake caliper due to the high brake fluid pressure.
Advantage of aluminium
The conventional bleed blocks made of plastic are much too soft to be able to reliably judge at the end of the bleeding process whether the brake is really properly bled and has a perfect pressure point. Testing with pads and disc installed is also less informative because pads are surprisingly soft and compressible. Only when the slave pistons press directly, directly, on a very hard, flat block can you really judge whether the brake is air-free. The block is 10 millimetres thick, i.e. as thick as two pads plus disc. This means that even at the workbench you can observe exactly how evenly and how far the pistons extend in the operating state.
