Technical Specifications and Features

This disc brake caliper features a cast iron body known for its resistance to wear and heat. It uses two phenolic pistons, each measuring 60mm (2.362 inches) in diameter, which help reduce heat transfer to the brake fluid and improve overall braking response. The floating caliper design is optimized for trailing axle applications, providing reliable pad engagement and even wear. The inlet fitting is a banjo type with a 3/8"-24 thread size, matching common brake line standards. Included components such as the abutment clips, mounting bracket, and bleeder screw facilitate a more complete replacement without the need for additional parts.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Addresses issues with uneven brake pad wear due to caliper malfunction
• Resolves brake fluid leakage by replacing corroded or damaged caliper pistons and seals
• Improves braking performance where original calipers have seized or stuck pistons
• Suitable for vehicles requiring a trailing axle caliper with 60mm pistons and banjo inlet fitting

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the mounting bracket is properly secured as it is included with this caliper. Note that mounting hardware and brake pads are not included and must be sourced separately.
