Raybestos Brakes Disc Brake Caliper P/N:FRC11529N
Bring firm, controlled braking back to your vehicle with the Raybestos Brakes Disc Brake Caliper (FRC12013N). A disc brake caliper houses the piston (or pistons) that press the brake pads against the rotor, converting hydraulic pressure into the clamping force that slows the wheel — so a properly working caliper is essential to safe, even stopping.
If a seized or leaking caliper is the cause of your braking issue, this unit replaces it. As with any hydraulic brake repair, diagnose the underlying cause before installing, and consult the vehicle service information for the correct bleeding procedure and fasteners.
What does a disc brake caliper do?
It houses the piston that presses the brake pads against the rotor, using hydraulic pressure to create the clamping force that slows the wheel.
What are common signs of a failing caliper?
Brake drag, a pulling sensation while braking, uneven pad wear, a sticking piston, or brake fluid seeping at the caliper are common signs it may need replacing.
Will this caliper fix my braking problem?
If a seized or leaking caliper is the cause, this unit replaces it. Diagnose the underlying cause first, since braking issues can have other sources.
What vehicles does the FRC12013N fit?
Check the Buyer's Guide tab and verify compatibility for your specific vehicle before ordering.
Do I need to bleed the brakes after installing this caliper?
Yes. Opening the hydraulic system requires bleeding. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct bleeding procedure and fasteners.
