The included mounting bracket simplifies installation, while the coated surface finish protects against rust and corrosion. This caliper is friction ready, meaning it is prepared for immediate use with compatible brake pads.

Common Applications and Issues Addressed

• Replacement for worn or seized calipers causing uneven braking
• Restores proper brake pad alignment and reduces premature wear
• Eliminates brake drag caused by sticking pistons
• Improves brake pedal feel and responsiveness

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the brake system is properly bled after installation to remove air from the hydraulic lines. Verify that the bleeder screw thread size M7x1.00 matches your vehicle’s specifications. Use the included mounting bracket for secure attachment, and inspect the caliper bracket mounting holes (12mm size with 1.25 thread pitch) for compatibility. Always follow manufacturer torque specifications during installation.
