Technical Description and Features

This Cardone 19-B984B caliper features a single steel piston with a diameter of 53.848 mm, designed to deliver consistent hydraulic pressure to the brake pads. The caliper’s oil emulsion finish in gray helps resist rust and wear over time. It includes a bleeder port sized M7x1.0 and an inlet port sized M10x1.0, matching OEM specifications for proper brake fluid flow. The caliper uses silicone grease on floating caliper mounting pins to maintain smooth operation and reduce noise. This remanufactured part meets OEM standards for fit and function on Volkswagen models such as the Golf and Passat.
