Product Line Details: Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers

Technical Specifications and Features

This disc brake caliper features a cast iron construction for strength and heat resistance. It is a floating type caliper equipped with two phenolic pistons, each measuring 57mm in diameter, which helps reduce heat transfer to the brake fluid. The inlet fitting uses a banjo style with an M10x1.0 thread diameter, compatible with standard brake lines. The caliper comes with a bleeder screw (M10x1.0 thread) included for proper brake system bleeding. The assembly includes mounting brackets and abutment clips but does not include brake pads or pad wear sensors.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or damaged disc brake calipers on Ram 1500
• Restores proper brake pad alignment and pressure
• Addresses brake fluid leakage issues with included bleeder screw
• Improves braking consistency by replacing corroded or seized calipers
• Supports maintenance of trailing axle brake systems

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation requires removal of the existing caliper and mounting hardware. Since this semi-loaded caliper includes the mounting bracket and abutment clips, it reduces the need to reuse old hardware. Ensure the brake system is properly bled using the included bleeder screw to avoid air pockets. Verify compatibility with Ram 1500 brake lines due to the M10x1.0 banjo inlet fitting. Brake pads must be sourced separately as they are not included.
