Details on Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers

The Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers product line focuses on providing semi-assembled calipers that include essential components such as abutment clips and bleeder screws, but exclude pads and mounting hardware. This approach allows for easier installation and maintenance while ensuring compatibility with a wide range of friction materials. The 141.80013 caliper features a robust cast iron body and phenolic pistons designed to resist heat and corrosion, contributing to consistent brake performance under various driving conditions.

Technical Specifications and Features

This disc brake caliper features a 7/16"-24 inlet thread diameter and bleeder screw thread size, facilitating straightforward hydraulic connections. The caliper’s gray finish and casting number 145513 identify it for precise fitment. With a piston bore size of 66 mm and two pistons, it provides balanced clamping force. The included abutment clips and bleeder screw support proper brake pad alignment and fluid bleeding, respectively. Note that mounting brackets and brake pads are not included and must be sourced separately.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or damaged front and rear disc brake calipers
• Restores proper brake piston movement and hydraulic pressure
• Addresses brake drag or uneven pad wear caused by faulty calipers

• Supports vehicles requiring FMSI pad number 10x.10640 compatible calipers

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the correct mounting bracket (part number 147.80013) is available before installation, as it is required but not included. Verify inlet and bleeder screw thread sizes (7/16"-24) match your vehicle’s brake lines and fittings. Since brake pads and mounting hardware are not included, prepare these components separately. Properly torque all mounting bolts and bleed the brake system thoroughly to remove air and ensure optimal braking performance.
