Product Line Details: Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers
The Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers line offers a balance between fully loaded and basic caliper assemblies. This semi-loaded caliper includes the mounting bracket, abutment clips, and bleeder screw, but does not come with pads or mounting hardware. This configuration allows for easier installation while providing flexibility for customers who prefer to reuse existing brake pads or hardware.
Technical Specifications and Features
This disc brake caliper is constructed from cast iron, ensuring strength and heat resistance under braking conditions. It features a single steel piston with a diameter of 38mm, designed to provide consistent clamping force. The floating caliper design allows for self-alignment during braking, reducing uneven pad wear. The inlet fitting uses a banjo style with an M10x1.0 thread diameter, compatible with standard brake lines. The included bleeder screw also has an M10x1.0 thread size, facilitating proper brake fluid bleeding during installation or maintenance. The caliper comes in a gray finish and includes the necessary mounting bracket and abutment clips, though mounting hardware and brake pads are not included.
Applications and Problem Solving
- Replacement for worn or damaged front or rear calipers on Acura Legend models
- Addresses issues with brake fluid leaks from caliper piston seals
- Resolves uneven brake pad wear caused by caliper sticking
- Improves braking response by restoring proper piston movement
- Suitable for restoring braking system integrity after caliper corrosion or damage
Installation Notes and Tips
Installation requires the use of the included mounting bracket and abutment clips. Since mounting hardware and brake pads are not included, ensure you have compatible components on hand before beginning installation. Properly torque all mounting bolts to manufacturer specifications. Bleed the brake system thoroughly using the included bleeder screw to remove air and ensure optimal brake performance. Verify inlet thread compatibility with your brake lines (M10x1.0) before installation.
