Default plastic bleeder screw woes

does anyone else find themselves cursing the frecking cheapness of having a plastic bleeder screw on the clutch slave cylinder and finding themselves stripping it? I purchased a new slave cylinder and after stripping two bleeder screws (took the old one off the old slave cylinder the first time) I'm getting a bit annoyed. I'm not being hard with it or anything, and I'm using a 6 point closed wrench, so does anyone know if the bleeder screw can be purchased seperatly or where to find a replacement (preferably metal..)


wth was audi thinking?.... plastic bleeder screws.. ugh.
