The inlet fitting is a banjo type with an M10x1.0 thread diameter, compatible with standard brake lines. The included mounting bracket and abutment clips facilitate proper installation, although mounting hardware bolts are not included. The caliper comes in a gray finish to help resist corrosion and wear.

Installation Notes and Tips
Ensure compatibility with your vehicle’s make and model before installation. This caliper requires the use of the included mounting bracket and abutment clips for proper fitment. Note that mounting hardware bolts are not included and must be sourced separately. Bleeder screw is included to facilitate brake fluid bleeding during installation. Verify inlet thread size (M10x1.0) matches your brake line fittings. Proper torque specifications should be followed to avoid damage or improper operation.
