Description

Give trapped air and old fluid a clean way out of the brake hydraulics with the Dorman brake bleeder screw 12702 from the Dorman HELP line, a replacement for a factory bleeder screw that is missing or no longer usable. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1988-1999 Chevrolet C1500, the 1988-1999 Chevrolet K1500 and the 1979-1985 Chevrolet Impala. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and engine details.

Size: M10-1.5 x 33mm, listed in Dorman's Quick Bleeders range.
Direct replacement: designed to replace the original screw with the same fit and function on the listed applications.
Front and rear: cataloged for both front and rear brake positions.
Quality construction: made from quality materials and engineered for reliable performance.
Expert backing: supported by a team of product experts in the United States with more than a century of automotive experience.

A bleeder screw threads into the bleeder port on the brake hydraulic system. Loosening it lets air and used fluid escape while the brakes are bled, and tightening it seals the port again. Over time the original screw can go missing or wear out from fatigue. A screw that is seized, snapped, rounded off or weeping brake fluid is a sign it may need replacing. Follow the vehicle service information for the correct torque and bleeding procedure.
