This line ensures that the calipers meet strict manufacturing and quality standards, offering a reliable replacement option for vehicles requiring disc brake calipers. The FRC5280 model is part of this line, combining remanufactured components with precise machining to restore braking efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Details and Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis disc brake caliper features a cast iron construction, known for its durability and heat resistance under braking conditions. The semi-loaded configuration means the caliper comes partially assembled, facilitating easier installation and maintenance. The piston diameter measures 2.000 inches (50.8 mm), which is critical for matching the hydraulic pressure requirements of the brake system. The bleeder screw thread size M10x1.5 allows for proper brake fluid evacuation during servicing. The plain surface finish indicates the caliper is prepared for friction material installation without additional coatings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Vehicles and Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuick Skylark and Century models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChevrolet Cavalier and Corsica\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOldsmobile Cutlass Calais and Tempest\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePontiac Grand Am and Sunbird\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis caliper is designed specifically for these GM makes and models, ensuring proper fitment and brake system compatibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Issues Addressed by This Caliper\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake fluid leaks from worn or damaged calipers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUneven brake pad wear due to caliper piston malfunction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced braking performance from seized or sticking caliper pistons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake noise caused by caliper misalignment or damage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorrosion and wear on original caliper components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen installing the Raybestos FRC5280 caliper, ensure the brake system is properly bled using the M10x1.5 bleeder screw to remove air and maintain hydraulic pressure.
