    I want to change out a break bleeder valve on my 2007 F430. I have one that has some rounding from a wrench slip. Are these standard size? Anyone have a part number or a link to a replacment screw in valve?

    The thread is M7 x 1.0, which is the standard thread on most European car. BMW for instance have exclusively used this thread on their cars (not motorbikes!), so you can go to the dealer and grab some cheap spare.

    Speedbleeder references SB7100S would make your life easier (https://store-speedbleeder-com.3dcartstores.com/SB7100S-Speed-Bleeder_p_15.html). The SB7100S is harder to source than the longer SB7100, if you don't mind the unnecessary length, these can also make it do.

    They are M10 x 1.0. With an 11mm hex. They are readily available. Although you may find different hex sizes and some may be taller.

    They would not get rounded if people quit over tightening them.
