Features and Specifications

This Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Caliper features a cast iron body that provides strength and thermal stability under braking conditions. The floating caliper design allows for self-alignment during braking, reducing uneven pad wear. It includes a single 34mm steel piston that applies consistent pressure to the brake pads, which are not included with this part. The caliper comes with a mounting bracket and abutment clips to facilitate proper installation, though mounting hardware and pads are sold separately.

The inlet thread diameter is M10x1.0, compatible with banjo and open fitting types, and the bleeder screw also uses an M10x1.0 thread size, allowing for effective brake fluid bleeding. The caliper’s gray color finish is standard for corrosion resistance and visual inspection. This part is designed for the leading axle position and has a bore size of 34 millimeters.
