This semi-loaded design includes essential hardware such as mounting brackets, abutment clips, and bleeder screws, but excludes brake pads and mounting hardware. This approach provides flexibility for technicians who prefer to reuse existing pads or hardware while upgrading the caliper itself. The 141.61566 model exemplifies this with its aluminum casting and steel piston, optimized for Ford brake hydraulics systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications and Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis disc brake caliper features a floating design with a single piston measuring 38mm in diameter, constructed from steel for strength and heat resistance. The caliper body and casting are made from aluminum, reducing unsprung weight and improving heat dissipation. The inlet fitting uses a banjo style with an M10x1.0 thread size, matching OEM specifications for Ford C-Max and Escape models. The included bleeder screw also features an M10x1.0 thread, facilitating proper brake fluid bleeding during installation. The caliper is finished in gray and designed for the leading axle position, ensuring correct fitment and function.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Applications and Problem Resolution\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement for worn or leaking disc brake calipers on Ford C-Max and Escape\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddresses uneven brake pad wear due to caliper piston issues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResolves brake fluid leaks from damaged or corroded caliper bodies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproves brake pedal feel by restoring proper caliper function\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for vehicles requiring a semi-loaded caliper assembly upgrade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation of the Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Caliper 141.61566 requires attention to proper torque specifications for mounting brackets and bleeder screws. Since brake pads and mounting hardware are not included, ensure compatibility with existing components or source replacements separately. Bleeding the brake system thoroughly after installation is critical to remove air and maintain braking performance. The included abutment clips should be installed to prevent pad movement and noise.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance and Warranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCentric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers are manufactured to meet or exceed OEM standards for fit, form, and function.
