Detailed Product Description

The Cardone Remanufactured Brake Caliper 19-B7298 is engineered to meet the specifications required for Mini Cooper brake systems. This caliper features a single 1.436-inch (38 mm) steel piston housed in a lightweight aluminum casting, which helps reduce unsprung weight while maintaining strength. The floating caliper design allows for smooth pad movement and consistent braking pressure. Included components such as the mounting bracket, caliper slides, bleeder screw with cap, and abutment clips facilitate proper installation and operation. The caliper’s gray oil emulsion finish provides protection against corrosion and wear. Note that this caliper does not include brake pads or pad wear sensors, so these must be sourced separately.

About the Remanufactured Brake Caliper Product Line

Cardone's Remanufactured Brake Caliper line focuses on restoring used calipers to meet or exceed original equipment standards. Each caliper undergoes a thorough remanufacturing process, including cleaning, machining, and replacement of critical components such as pistons and seals. This process ensures reliable performance and fitment for vehicles like the Mini Cooper, offering a cost-effective alternative to new calipers without compromising quality.

Common Applications and Problem Resolution

• Replacement for seized or sticking calipers causing uneven brake pad wear
• Fixing brake fluid leaks from damaged or worn caliper pistons
• Resolving brake noise or vibration due to faulty caliper slides or mounting brackets
• Addressing reduced braking efficiency from corroded or damaged caliper bodies
• Restoring proper brake function after caliper hardware failure

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Cardone 19-B7298 caliper on a Mini Cooper, ensure the brake system is properly bled using the included bleeder screw and cap to remove air. Verify that the mounting bracket and caliper slides are securely fastened to prevent brake noise and uneven pad wear. Since brake pads and pad wear sensors are not included, install compatible pads separately. Inspect all brake hardware and replace if necessary to maintain optimal braking performance.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Cardone remanufactured calipers undergo rigorous testing to meet OEM specifications. The 19-B7298 caliper is built with high-quality materials including steel pistons and aluminum casting for durability. While specific warranty details are not provided here, Cardone typically offers limited warranties on remanufactured brake components to ensure customer confidence and product reliability.
