Default Speed Bleeder size clarification

I'm going to install those Russell Speed Bleeders on all 4 calipers on my 92 SC400

From searching here, I've found the part and size below fits:

Russell Part #639570 7mm x 1.0 x 34mm Thread

My question is will this fit all 4 calipers or just the front ? I'd figure it'd be all 4 but want to check from someone who's installed them before I purchase them..

Thanks.

Ok, so the speedbleeders part number is SB7100 7X1 . It fit into all 4 calipers. I installed them and bled (rear first, then front), but unfortunately I didn't get the improvement I'd hoped.

They feel better, but they're still moderately spongy the first 1/2 " or so when depressing the pedal. I'll look to check out the brake booster or the line...
