Russell Speed Bleeder replaces a standard bleeder screw and adds a built-in one-way check valve so brakes can be bled by one person. This bleeder has a 1/4-28 thread and lets air out on the down stroke while the check valve keeps air from being drawn back in.

FAQ
How does a Speed Bleeder work?
A built-in one-way check valve lets air and fluid out during bleeding and closes to stop air from being pulled back in, so you can bleed brakes without a helper.
What thread size is part 639540?
It has a 1/4-28 thread. Confirm your caliper or cylinder uses this thread before ordering.
Do I still need brake fluid to bleed the system?
Yes. Keep the reservoir topped off while bleeding so the system does not draw in air.
