Details on Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers

The Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers line offers semi-assembled calipers that include essential components such as the mounting bracket, abutment clips, and bleeder screw, simplifying installation. This product line is designed to meet or exceed OEM specifications, providing a balance between quality and ease of installation. The 141.42138 caliper features a floating design with two steel pistons measuring 45 mm in diameter, cast in durable iron to withstand high temperatures and stress during braking. The banjo inlet fitting and bleeder screw both use M10x1.0 thread sizes, ensuring compatibility with factory brake lines and maintenance tools.

Product Features and Specifications

This disc brake caliper is specifically designed for the Nissan 350Z and Infiniti G35, ensuring proper fitment and function. Key specifications include a 45 mm piston diameter, cast iron construction, and a gray finish that resists corrosion. The caliper comes with a mounting bracket and abutment clips but does not include brake pads or mounting hardware bolts. The inlet thread diameter and bleeder screw thread diameter are both M10x1.0, compatible with standard brake hydraulic fittings. The caliper’s floating design allows for smooth operation and even pad wear.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation requires removal of the old caliper and proper mounting of the included bracket and abutment clips. Brake pads and mounting hardware bolts are not included and must be sourced separately. Ensure the bleeder screw is properly tightened and bled to remove air from the brake system. The banjo fitting requires correct torque specifications to prevent leaks. Verify compatibility with your vehicle’s brake lines before installation.
