Detailed Product Description

This Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Caliper 141.48117 is engineered to meet the braking needs of specific compact SUVs and crossovers, including Chevrolet Sidekick, Geo Tracker, and Suzuki Sidekick models. The caliper features a durable cast iron body that withstands high temperatures and mechanical stress. It uses a single 54mm steel piston to apply consistent pressure to the brake pads, which are not included with this semi-loaded caliper. The floating caliper design allows for self-alignment during braking, reducing uneven pad wear and improving overall braking efficiency.

The caliper comes with essential components such as the mounting bracket, abutment clips, and bleeder screw, facilitating installation and maintenance. The inlet fitting is a banjo type with an M10x1.0 thread size, compatible with standard brake lines for these vehicle models. The gray finish provides corrosion resistance, extending the caliper's service life.
