Technical Specifications and Features

This floating disc brake caliper features a cast iron body for durability and heat dissipation. It uses a single steel piston with a diameter of 38mm, designed to provide consistent clamping force. The caliper includes a mounting bracket and abutment clips, but does not come with brake pads or pad wear sensors. The inlet thread diameter is M10x1.0, and the bleeder screw thread size is M7x1.0, both included for proper hydraulic connection and maintenance. The gray finish helps resist corrosion, extending the caliper's service life.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or damaged disc brake calipers on BMW 735i and 735iL
• Restores proper brake clamping force and pedal feel
• Addresses brake fluid leakage issues by providing a new bleeder screw and seals
• Improves brake system reliability with included mounting hardware
• Helps eliminate uneven pad wear caused by faulty calipers

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation requires removal of the old caliper and proper mounting of the included bracket and abutment clips. Ensure the inlet and bleeder screw threads (M10x1.0 and M7x1.0 respectively) are clean and free of debris before connecting brake lines. Bleed the brake system thoroughly after installation to remove air and maintain braking performance. Note that brake pads and pad wear sensors are not included and must be sourced separately.
