Detailed Product Features and Specifications

This Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Caliper features a cast iron body that provides durability and effective heat dissipation during braking. The fixed caliper type incorporates two steel pistons, each with a diameter of 38mm (1.496 inches), ensuring balanced pressure on brake pads for consistent braking performance. The caliper includes a bleeder screw with an M7x1.0 thread size to facilitate proper brake fluid bleeding during installation or maintenance. Abutment clips are included to secure the brake pads, although mounting hardware and brake pads themselves are not part of this assembly.

The inlet thread diameter is M10x1.0, compatible with standard brake line fittings. The caliper’s gray finish is typical for OEM replacement parts, maintaining a professional appearance under the wheel. This part does not include a mounting bracket or mounting bracket bolts, and no pad wear sensor is provided, so these components must be sourced separately if required.
