Product Details and Specifications

This Centric disc brake caliper features a floating design with a single steel piston measuring 63.5 mm in diameter, ensuring reliable clamping force during braking. The caliper body is made from cast iron, offering durability and resistance to heat generated during braking. The inlet fitting uses a banjo style with an M10x1.5 thread diameter, compatible with standard brake lines. Included abutment clips help maintain proper pad alignment, and the bleeder screw with M10x1.5 thread size facilitates brake fluid bleeding. Note that this caliper does not include brake pads, pad wear sensors, mounting hardware, or mounting brackets, which must be sourced separately.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or damaged disc brake calipers on compatible Buick, Chevrolet, GMC, Isuzu, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac models

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation requires removal of the existing caliper and may involve reusing original mounting brackets and brake pads, as these are not included. Ensure the brake system is properly bled using the included bleeder screw to remove air and maintain hydraulic integrity. Verify compatibility with vehicle-specific inlet thread sizes (M10x1.5) and banjo fitting type. Abutment clips are included to assist with pad alignment, but mounting hardware must be sourced separately. Proper torque specifications should be followed to avoid damage or improper function.
