Product Line Details: Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers

The Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers line offers a balance between fully loaded and basic caliper assemblies. This semi-loaded design includes essential components such as the mounting bracket, abutment clips, and bleeder screw, but excludes brake pads and mounting hardware. This approach allows for easier integration with existing brake systems while maintaining quality and reliability for the Kia Amanti application.

Technical Description and Features

This floating disc brake caliper features a cast iron body that provides durability and effective heat dissipation during braking. The caliper uses two steel pistons, each with a diameter of 43mm, to apply even pressure on the brake pads. The inlet fitting supports both banjo and open types with a 10mm M10x1.0 thread diameter, facilitating compatibility with standard brake lines. The included mounting bracket and abutment clips simplify installation, while the bleeder screw with matching thread size ensures proper brake fluid maintenance. The gray finish offers corrosion resistance suitable for various driving conditions.
