Detailed Product Description

This Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Caliper 141.76010 features a cast iron body that provides strength and heat resistance under demanding braking conditions. The caliper uses two steel pistons, each measuring 54mm in diameter, to apply even pressure to the brake pads, improving braking efficiency and pad wear. The floating caliper design allows for slight lateral movement, accommodating rotor variations and reducing uneven pad wear. The trailing axle configuration is optimized for specific vehicle suspension setups, ensuring proper alignment and braking response.

The caliper includes a mounting bracket and abutment clips, which are essential for proper caliper positioning and pad retention. The inlet fitting uses a banjo style with an M10x1.0 thread diameter, compatible with standard brake lines. Additionally, the bleeder screw with matching thread size is included to facilitate brake fluid bleeding during installation or maintenance. Note that this semi-loaded caliper does not include brake pads or mounting hardware such as bolts.
