It includes two steel pistons, each with a 35 mm (1 inch) outside diameter, designed to provide consistent braking force.

The inlet fitting is a plug type with an M10-1.0 thread size. Note that anti-squeal shims, brackets, and caliper slides are not included.
Common Applications and Problem Solving

- Restores proper piston movement and brake pad engagement
- Eliminates uneven brake pad wear caused by caliper malfunction
- Prevents corrosion-related failures with rust preventative finish
Installation Notes and Tips
Ensure the brake system is properly bled using the included bleeder screw to remove air and maintain braking performance. Verify thread sizes (M8-1.25 for bleeder screw, M10-1.0 for inlet port) match your vehicle’s specifications. Although the caliper includes brake pad installation hardware, pads themselves are not included and should be sourced separately. Inspect dust boots during installation to confirm they are seated correctly to prevent contamination.
