About Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers

The Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers line provides a balance between fully loaded and bare calipers by including essential components such as the mounting bracket, abutment clips, and bleeder screw. This semi-loaded design simplifies installation while allowing users to reuse existing brake pads and mounting hardware if desired. The 141.66501 caliper benefits from this approach, offering a quality aluminum casting and phenolic piston for heat resistance and corrosion protection.

Detailed Product Description

This Centric disc brake caliper features a single 48mm phenolic piston designed to reduce heat transfer to the brake fluid, improving overall braking consistency. The aluminum caliper body provides a lightweight yet durable structure, suitable for the demands of mid-size trucks and SUVs like the Chevrolet Blazer and GMC Sonoma. The caliper includes a gray finish and comes with abutment clips and a mounting bracket to ensure proper alignment and secure installation. The inlet fitting uses a banjo style with an M10x1.0 thread diameter, matching OEM specifications for a direct replacement. Additionally, the bleeder screw is included with the correct M10x1.0 thread size to facilitate brake system bleeding during maintenance.
