Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers Product Line

The Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers line focuses on providing semi-assembled calipers that include key components such as pistons and seals, but exclude pads and mounting hardware. This approach allows for easier installation and maintenance while ensuring compatibility with original equipment specifications. The 141.83009 model fits within this line, offering a fixed caliper design with phenolic pistons and cast iron construction for enhanced heat resistance and longevity.

Technical Specifications and Features

This disc brake caliper features a fixed design with four phenolic pistons, each measuring 70mm in diameter, which helps reduce heat transfer to the brake fluid and improves overall braking efficiency. The caliper body is made from cast iron, providing strength and durability under demanding conditions. The inlet thread diameter is 7/16"-24 with an inverted fitting type, and the bleeder screw thread size matches at 7/16"-24, facilitating proper brake fluid bleeding and maintenance. Abutment clips and a bleeder screw are included, but mounting hardware and brake pads are not part of this assembly.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or damaged fixed disc brake calipers on compatible vehicles
• Restores braking performance affected by piston or caliper body corrosion
• Addresses brake fluid leakage issues by providing a new bleeder screw and proper sealing
• Improves brake system reliability with phenolic pistons that reduce heat soak
• Suitable for vehicles requiring a 70mm piston diameter fixed caliper with cast iron construction

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Caliper 141.83009, ensure the brake system is properly bled using the included bleeder screw to remove air and maintain hydraulic integrity. Since mounting hardware and brake pads are not included, verify compatibility with existing components or acquire necessary parts separately. The inlet fitting is inverted and requires a 7/16"-24 thread size brake line connection. Proper torque specifications should be followed to avoid damage to the caliper or mounting points.
