Default Where can I buy stainless steel bleeder screws ?

Well..... it sure could take the place of the banjo bolt that attaches
the caliper to the brake line. But it's almost the same price as the
over-priced speed bleeder.

I'm thinking that maybe an aluminum bleeder may do the job:

I may eventually find a stainless bleeder from an aircraft brakes
supplier.
