[Closed] This bleed block ok for Guide calipers? (Pic)

Unsure why it wouldn't be...I think (although, suspect I'm wrong) but the gap that the pads and rotor sits in is standard...so I'd say it should be fine.

Cheers bud, good enough for me. 🙂

I use a 10mm Allen key so as long as it's 10mm it should be fine.

I use some bits of card sellotaped together for a bleed block, same one worked on my elixir and guides.

Cheers guys.
Inventive solutions too!

That's going to cause issues I'd think.

It's intended for a 2-pot Elixir and may be thick enough but isn't really long enough.

What you really want is one of these and they aren't that expensive...

Yes well the self fashioned card block went in narrow side for the 2 pot elixirs, and broadside for the 4 pot guides. The fact it fitted both was just a coincidence, but I would have just cut some new if it didn't.

Took the idea from http://www.epicbleedsolutions.com/products/accessories/bleed-block-kit/

Didnt fancy paying a fiver so I just used some old business cards laying around.
