Details on Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers

The Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers line offers a semi-assembled solution that simplifies brake system maintenance and replacement. This product line provides a balance between fully loaded and bare calipers by including the mounting bracket and abutment clips, but excluding pads and mounting hardware. The 141.46553 caliper is engineered with a single 35mm steel piston housed in a cast iron body, ensuring consistent braking force and heat resistance. Its floating caliper design allows for smooth pad engagement and even wear, which is critical for the Mitsubishi Eclipse and Galant brake systems.

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Caliper 141.46553, ensure the mounting bracket is securely fastened as it is included but mounting bolts are not. Bleeder screw is included, so bleeding the brake system after installation is necessary to remove air and maintain proper hydraulic pressure. Note that brake pads and mounting hardware are not included and must be sourced separately. Verify inlet fitting type compatibility (banjo or open) with your vehicle’s brake lines before installation.
