mimjed 0 Posted April 10, 2011 did the brakes for my old man on hiz mazda premacy and the sodding nipple snapped flush with the caliper instead of undoing. any tips for getting the bugger out to replace it? or is drilling it the only way? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pete_griff 0 Posted April 13, 2011 you can buy some stud extractors that look a bit like giant self tapping screws. essentially they are just pointy studs with a reverse thread on them. when you wind them in they grip and will try to wind the broken nipple (or stud) back out. pretty much ideal for broken bleed nipple just be sure to get some decent quality jobbies and make sure you don't snap it off in the hole seeing as you'll be using such a small one for a bleed nipple. type "reverse thread extractor" into ebay and you'll see exactly what i mean. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
