Technical Specifications and Features

This disc brake caliper features a cast iron construction for both the caliper body and piston, enhancing durability under high thermal and mechanical stress.

Included mounting hardware consists of the mounting bracket and abutment clips, while pad wear sensors and brake pads are not included. The caliper is finished in gray to resist corrosion and maintain appearance over time.
