Detailed Product Description

This Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Caliper 141.51250 is constructed from cast iron, providing a robust and heat-resistant housing suitable for the demands of braking systems on Hyundai Elantra, Kia Magentis, Kia Optima, and Hyundai Sonata vehicles. The floating caliper design features a single steel piston with a diameter of 57 mm, which delivers consistent clamping force to the brake pads. The caliper comes semi-loaded, meaning it includes the mounting bracket and abutment clips but does not include brake pads or pad wear sensors.

The inlet fitting supports both banjo and open types with a 10 mm (M10x1.0) thread diameter, facilitating compatibility with standard brake lines. The bleeder screw, also with an M10x1.0 thread, is included to allow proper brake fluid bleeding during installation or maintenance. The gray finish provides corrosion resistance and a clean appearance.
