Technical Specifications and Features

This disc brake caliper features a cast iron construction for durability and heat dissipation. The dual phenolic pistons, each measuring 2.126 inches in diameter, provide balanced braking force. The floating caliper design allows for self-alignment during braking, reducing uneven pad wear. The inlet fitting uses a banjo style with a 3/8"-24 thread size, compatible with standard brake lines. Included components such as the bleeder screw (M10-1.00 thread) and mounting bracket facilitate maintenance and installation. The caliper’s gray finish and specific casting numbers (8c242k327 series) help identify the part for fitment verification.
