Possible to replace a bleed screw?
Possible to replace a bleed screw?
Evening all,
I got a bit excited after bleeding this rad the other week and snapped the head off the bleed screw when tightening with the key. Is it possible/relatively simple to just replace the screw? If not, can the whole valve be replaced with the more “modern” kind that you bleed with a flat head? Looks like possibly you could get it out with an Allen key and then screw the new one in?
