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

The Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers line offers semi-assembled calipers that include essential components such as abutment clips and bleeder screws, but exclude pads and mounting hardware. This design allows for easier installation and maintenance while maintaining high standards of material quality, including aluminum and cast iron castings and steel pistons. The 141.51278 caliper fits within this line, providing a balance of performance and serviceability for Hyundai vehicles.

Technical Specifications and Features

This fixed disc brake caliper features four pistons with diameters ranging from 43 mm to 48 mm, constructed from steel for durability under high braking loads. The caliper casting combines aluminum and cast iron materials to optimize strength and heat management. It includes a bleeder screw with M10x1.0 thread size and a banjo-type inlet fitting, also threaded M10x1.0, facilitating proper hydraulic connection. The caliper is finished in gray and comes with abutment clips and a bleeder screw included, but does not include brake pads or mounting hardware.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or damaged disc brake calipers on Hyundai Equus and Genesis
• Addresses uneven brake pad wear due to piston malfunction
• Resolves brake fluid leakage by providing a new bleeder screw and sealed piston assembly
• Improves braking consistency with fixed caliper design and multiple pistons
• Restores proper brake function when original caliper casting is compromised

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure compatibility with Hyundai Equus and Genesis models before installation. This caliper does not include brake pads or mounting hardware, so these components must be sourced separately. Properly bleed the brake system using the included bleeder screw to remove air and maintain hydraulic integrity. Verify inlet fitting type and thread size (M10x1.0) to match existing brake lines. Use appropriate torque specifications for mounting bolts and fittings to avoid damage.
