Convert hydraulic brake-fluid pressure into pad-clamping force with the Carlson Disc Brake Caliper Piston 7201. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2009-2016 Toyota Venza (all engines), seating inside the front disc brake caliper bore where brake fluid acts on it directly.
When you press the pedal, pressurized brake fluid pushes the piston outward so it drives the brake pad against the rotor; as pressure releases, the piston eases back. It is a core hydraulic component of the front caliper.
- Front caliper piston: cataloged for the FRONT position on the listed Venza applications.
- Hydraulic clamping: transfers brake-fluid pressure to the pad, then retracts slightly as pressure drops.
- Application quantity: the listed 2009-2016 Toyota Venza uses four; replace the pistons across an axle together for even, balanced braking, and order the quantity your repair requires.
- Service note: consult the vehicle service information for the correct seals, hardware, and whether any original parts may be reused.
Signs this piston may need replacing include a seized, corroded, or pitted piston that causes brake drag, uneven pad wear, or fluid seeping past the caliper seal. Because those symptoms can have other causes, diagnose the caliper first; if a failed front caliper piston is the cause, this replaces it.
Manufacturer part number 7201.
