Features and Specifications

This Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Caliper features a cast iron body that ensures strength and heat resistance under braking conditions. The single piston, measuring 44 mm (1.732 inches) in diameter, is made of steel to provide reliable hydraulic pressure application. The caliper is a floating type, which allows for self-alignment during braking, reducing uneven pad wear.

The caliper includes a bleeder screw with a 5/16"-24 thread size for easy brake fluid bleeding and maintenance. Abutment clips are included to secure brake pads properly, although mounting hardware and brake pads are not included. The inlet thread diameter is M10x1.0, compatible with standard brake lines for Mercedes-Benz vehicles.
