Detailed Product Description

This Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Caliper 141.61051 features a cast iron construction that provides durability and resistance to high temperatures generated during braking. The floating caliper design allows for smooth movement and even pad wear, supported by a single 66mm steel piston that delivers consistent hydraulic pressure. The caliper comes with a bleeder screw (3/8"-24 thread) and abutment clips included, facilitating proper brake fluid bleeding and secure pad positioning. The inlet fitting is a banjo type with an M10x1.5 thread diameter, compatible with standard brake lines for Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models. This caliper is finished in gray and does not include brake pads, mounting hardware, or brackets, so these components must be sourced separately.
