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 mounting brackets and abutment clips, but exclude pads and mounting hardware. This design simplifies installation while allowing flexibility for brake pad selection. The 141.62570 caliper benefits from this semi-loaded configuration, providing a balance between convenience and customization for Cadillac CTS and STS brake system maintenance.

Technical Specifications and Features

This disc brake caliper features a single 45 mm phenolic piston, which helps reduce heat transfer to the brake fluid, minimizing the risk of vapor lock. The caliper’s aluminum casting material offers corrosion resistance and reduced weight compared to traditional cast iron. The floating caliper design allows for self-alignment during braking, improving pad wear and braking efficiency. The inlet fitting uses a banjo style with an M10x1.0 thread diameter, compatible with standard brake lines for Cadillac CTS and STS models. The included mounting bracket and abutment clips facilitate proper installation and secure fitment. Additionally, the caliper comes with a bleeder screw (M10x1.0 thread) to assist with brake fluid bleeding during maintenance.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or damaged disc brake calipers on Cadillac CTS and STS
• Addresses issues with brake fluid leaks or piston corrosion
