Carlson Disc Brake Caliper Piston P/N:7953
Help keep braking firm and even with the Carlson Disc Brake Caliper Piston 7051, a direct-fit front caliper piston for the 2019-2020 Hyundai Santa Fe with all engines. It drops into the caliper bore and is driven by hydraulic brake fluid to push the brake pad against the rotor when you press the pedal — the core moving part that converts fluid pressure into clamping force.
A pitted, scored, or corroded original piston can hang up in the bore, causing a dragging brake, uneven pad wear, or a caliper that won't retract or seal. If a worn caliper piston is the cause of those symptoms, this replacement piston replaces it. Inspect the caliper bore, seals, and boot during installation and bleed the brakes afterward per the vehicle service procedure. See the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the fit for your vehicle.
