M10-1.0 is one of the standard coarse-thread sizes for brake bleeder screws under Trade series (brake bleeder screws). The sections below reproduce the dimensional row, list the matching tools and hole sizes, and summarize where this size is normally specified.
M10-1.0 Dimensional Row (Trade series (brake bleeder screws))
| Thread size | Overall length (mm) | Thread length (mm) | Head diameter (mm) | Inside diameter (mm) | Check valve | Material / finish |
|---|
| M10-1.0 | 35 | | 10 | | none | treated steel, silver |
Spanner & Drive for M10-1.0 Brake Bleeder Screws
Drive geometry for M10-1.0 Brake Bleeder Screws is given by the row above; match the tool to the listed values.
M10-1.0 Brake Bleeder Screws Weight
A steel M10-1.0 brake bleeder screws at the listed 35 mm length weighs approximately 2,201 g each — about 2,201 kg per 1,000 pieces. Stainless A2/A4 weighs roughly the same (density 7.9–8.0 g/cm³).
Actual weight varies slightly with head form, thread and finish; use this figure for freight estimation only.
Installation Tips for M10-1.0 Brake Bleeder Screws
- At M10-1.0 the stretch in the bolt becomes the controlling factor — for critical joints, use angle-controlled or stretch-controlled tightening instead of pure torque.
Mating Parts for M10-1.0
For M10-1.0, pair with a M10-1.0 hex nut (ISO 4032 / DIN 934) and, where used, a M10-1.0 flat washer (ISO 7089 / DIN 125A) under the head and under the nut.
Custom manufacturing · Made to drawing
Need brake bleeder screws in a size this table does not list?
This page covers M10-1.0 brake bleeder screws. Head form and drive can be specified to the assembly rather than to a standard: a larger bearing face, a security drive, or a socket sized for the tool already on the bench. Made by cold heading or hot forging.
Minimum order from 2,000 pieces; samples within 7 days of drawing approval.

Applications & Industries for M10-1.0 Brake Bleeder Screws
Brake Bleeder Screws are bought for a small number of well-defined jobs. These are the ones we ship them for.
Industries that specify Brake Bleeder Screws
-
Hydraulic testing
Check-valve forms reduce fluid backflow during a bleed operation.
-
Brake service
Bleeder screws open a caliper or wheel-cylinder circuit for fluid bleeding.
-
Automotive repair
M10-1.0 examples fit documented service applications.
-
Fleet maintenance
Treated steel options support replacement during routine brake work.
-
Food, pharma & cleanroom
Stainless assemblies that are washed down, where the finish matters as much as the strength.
-
Machine building & OEM
The default fastener on production equipment: covers, brackets, motor mounts and sub-assemblies tightened to a specified torque.
Typical applications
- replacing the screw when the seat or threads are damaged
- matching thread, seat and length to the caliper
- choosing a standard or check-valve bleeder
- using the supplied 10–11 mm head size
- joints where the property class is stated on the drawing
- clamping two machined faces to a calculated preload
Service conditions to specify against
- Marine and coastal
- Available in A4 (316) stainless for chloride exposure — coastal structures, pool halls, water treatment and deck hardware, where A2 will eventually pit.
- High load
- Supplied in ISO 898-1 property classes, so the joint can be designed to a stated proof load and tightened to a calculated torque rather than by feel.
- Torque and preload
- The joint is designed around bolt tension, so lubrication, coating and the friction coefficient all change the torque figure — state them together.
Where to use something else
- Do not select a bleeder from thread pitch alone; the seat, length and wheel-cylinder application must also match.
- Do not use a machine thread into unthreaded sheet or timber; use a tapping screw, rivet nut or insert made for that parent material.
