This model is not currently offered as a verified ready to buy print.
What it does
- Bleeds air out of household radiators in seconds
- Saves you from cold spots in heated rooms
- Prints with no supports, just part cooling
- A staple home maintenance tool for fall and winter
- Drops onto common radiator bleed valve shapes
You turn on the heat in October and one radiator stays cold. This bleeder key fixes that. The tool fits the standard square shape on most household radiator bleed valves, so a quick turn lets the trapped air out and the warm water in.
The print needs no supports, just decent part cooling for a clean finish. Print one for the toolbox and another for the garage so you have a spare.
Use it every fall to bleed your radiators and keep the house evenly warm.
