This particular caliper features a coated finish to protect against rust and wear, extending the service life of the component. The semi-loaded, floating caliper design with a single piston ensures consistent brake pad contact and smooth braking response. The inclusion of the bracket simplifies installation and ensures proper alignment on compatible vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications and Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis disc brake caliper is constructed from cast iron, providing strength and heat resistance essential for braking systems. The floating caliper type allows for self-adjustment during braking, reducing uneven pad wear. The caliper piston diameter measures 60.200 mm (2.370 inches), which is critical for proper hydraulic pressure and braking force. The bleeder screw thread size is M10x1, facilitating brake fluid bleeding during maintenance. The mounting bracket features a 12.000 mm hole size with a 1.750 thread pitch, ensuring secure attachment to the vehicle’s suspension components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Vehicles and Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChevrolet Malibu\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChevrolet HHR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePontiac G6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSaturn Sky\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis caliper is specifically designed for these models, providing a direct replacement that meets factory fit and function requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Issues Addressed by This Caliper\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake caliper sticking or seizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUneven brake pad wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake fluid leaks from caliper seals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced braking performance due to piston corrosion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNoise or vibration during braking caused by faulty caliper operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen installing the Raybestos FRC11618C caliper, ensure the mounting bracket is securely fastened using the specified 12.000 mm hole size and 1.750 thread pitch. Bleed the brake system thoroughly using the M10x1 bleeder screw to remove air and maintain proper hydraulic pressure. Verify piston movement and pad alignment before completing installation. It is recommended to inspect brake pads and rotors for wear and replace if necessary to ensure optimal braking performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance and Warranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis remanufactured caliper undergoes rigorous testing to meet OEM standards for fit, form, and function.
