Detailed Product Description and Features

This Raybestos disc brake caliper is engineered with a floating caliper design, allowing it to move laterally to evenly apply pressure to the brake rotor. The caliper is remanufactured to meet strict quality standards and includes a semi-loaded configuration, meaning it comes with pistons and seals installed, simplifying installation. The cast iron construction provides the necessary strength to withstand the rigors of braking, while the coated finish helps prevent corrosion, especially important for vehicles exposed to harsh environments.

The caliper features two pistons, each with a diameter of 1.870 inches (47.5 mm), which ensures consistent and effective clamping force on the brake pads. The included bleeder screw with M10x1 thread size facilitates proper brake fluid bleeding during installation or maintenance.
