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 key components such as mounting brackets and abutment clips, but exclude pads and mounting hardware. This approach provides a balance between convenience and customization, allowing technicians to install a reliable caliper assembly tailored to specific vehicle requirements. The 141.67518 model exemplifies this with its cast iron construction and phenolic piston, designed to meet the demands of Dodge and Jeep brake systems.

Technical Specifications and Features

This disc brake caliper features a single phenolic piston with a diameter of 1.89 inches, providing effective hydraulic pressure transfer for braking. The caliper is a floating type, which allows it to self-adjust and maintain even pad wear. The inlet fitting uses a banjo style with an M10x1.0 thread size, matching OEM brake line connections. The included bleeder screw also has an M10x1.0 thread, facilitating proper brake fluid bleeding during maintenance. The caliper’s gray cast iron body offers durability and heat dissipation, essential for consistent braking performance.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or damaged front disc brake calipers on Jeep Wrangler JK and Dodge Nitro
• Restores proper brake function when piston seals or caliper bodies are corroded or leaking
• Addresses uneven pad wear caused by sticking or seized calipers
• Improves braking response and pedal feel on vehicles with original equipment calipers showing signs of fatigue
• Supports brake system rebuilds requiring semi-loaded caliper assemblies

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation requires removal of the old caliper and proper cleaning of the mounting surface. Since mounting hardware and brake pads are not included, ensure compatible pads and hardware are sourced separately. The included mounting bracket and abutment clips simplify alignment and secure fitment. Bleed the brake system thoroughly after installation using the included bleeder screw to remove air and maintain hydraulic integrity. Verify inlet thread compatibility with existing brake lines (M10x1.0) before installation.
