Detailed Product Features and Specifications

This Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Caliper features a cast iron body that provides strength and thermal stability under demanding conditions. The caliper uses two phenolic pistons, each measuring 43mm in diameter, which help reduce heat transfer to the brake fluid and improve overall braking response. The floating caliper design allows for self-alignment during braking, reducing uneven pad wear. It comes with essential components such as abutment clips, a mounting bracket, and a bleeder screw with M10x1.0 thread size to facilitate proper installation and maintenance.

The inlet fitting is a banjo type with a 10mm thread diameter, compatible with standard brake lines. This caliper is designed for the front axle trailing position, matching the original equipment specifications for Nissan 720, D21, Frontier, Pathfinder, and Pickup models. Note that this semi-loaded caliper does not include brake pads or mounting hardware bolts, so these should be sourced separately.
