Default Speed Bleeders? For 92-95 HB

Has anyone used these products. Also wouldn't it be easier if you had you own one way valve that could be attached to the stock bleeder? Also if I decide to get these anyone know the specs for front and back for a 95 dx?

Id really suggest just using a vacuum pump on the oem bleeder valves instead
I wouldnt even want to think how disasterous it would be if those things broke during driving.

after fighting with my brakes for too long I picked up a set, they worked great. But from what I've heard they go bad on the car due to corrosion.
I'm waiting to see if the SS versions still work after a nice crappy chicago winter.

M10x1.25 is what honda disk (F&R) uses, I'm not sure about drums.

SB10125 - steel version
SB10125-SS - stainless version

When bleeding they stop the fluid from pulling back in when lifting the pedal. Illiminating the need to tighten the bleeder.
When driving normally they are tightened down just like a normal bleeder.

Fountally he was ok except a cut hand but after seeing this first hand I will never run speedbleeders
