Stahlbus,
an innovative manufacturer of oil drain systems, quick disconnect fittings, and tools, now offers a unique brake bleeder valve.
A common problem associated with bleeding hydraulic systems, such as brakes, clutches or couplings, is that the conventional bleeder screw let's air in and hydraulic fluid out.
Since the conventional screw typically has inadequate thread thickness, it consistently allows air into the system each time it is turned on and off, resulting in permanent bubbles.
The constant opening and closing of conventional bleeder screws during the bleeding process wears the aluminum thread in the cylinder (e.g. of the caliper) in such a way that clearances start to appear with time. At the worst, the cylinder may become defective. Another disadvantage is that the thread of an opened bleeder screw does not seal.
The Stahlbus® Bleeder Valve is different, because it consists of two parts with a non-return function. During bleeding and filling, only the upper part with the integrated O-ring seal is unscrewed. This prevents both air and brake fluid or hydraulic fluid to ingress through the opened thread. In addition, it is no longer necessary to open and close the system synchronously due to the non-return valve. In case of pressure loss the Stahlbus® Bleeder Valve closes independently until the next bleeding pressure is built up.
Thus, the complete system bleeding is achieved within minutes. Single-handedly, without assistance.
Hydraulic systems are easily changed to our Stahlbus® bleed system by replacing the former bleeder screw by the Stahlbus® bleeder valve. It is inserted into the cylinder once and remains there.
The stahlbus®-bleeder valve was tested by the TÜV Rhineland Group (European Quality and Safety Standard) for function and quality and received the highest rating. Brake fluid is just as important for your braking system as brake pads and brake disks! The most expensive and most modern brake system means nothing if air is in the system.
