Detailed Product Description

This disc brake caliper features a robust cast iron construction that withstands the rigors of daily driving and heavy-duty applications. The floating caliper design allows the caliper to move laterally, ensuring even pad wear and effective braking. With two pistons measuring approximately 2.007 inches in diameter, the caliper applies balanced pressure to the brake pads for reliable stopping power. The included mounting bracket simplifies installation, while the coated surface finish protects against rust and corrosion. The bleeder screw with M10x1.00 thread size facilitates proper brake fluid bleeding and maintenance.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or damaged disc brake calipers on Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 and 3500XD
• Addresses uneven brake pad wear caused by faulty caliper movement
• Resolves brake fluid leakage issues related to caliper piston seals
• Improves braking performance when original calipers have corroded or seized
• Restores proper brake function in commercial vans requiring reliable stopping power

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the brake system is fully depressurized before removing the old caliper. Verify that the mounting bracket included with the FRC13440N caliper matches your vehicle’s specifications. Use the correct bleeder screw size (M10x1.00) for brake fluid bleeding procedures. Inspect brake pads and rotors for wear and replace if necessary to maintain optimal braking performance. Follow manufacturer torque specifications when securing the caliper and bracket.
