Construction & Design:

These rear calipers are crafted from durable cast iron, providing excellent strength and heat management under demanding braking conditions. The phenolic piston reduces heat transfer to the brake fluid, helping to maintain consistent braking performance and reduce fade. The calipers are remanufactured in PowerStop’s Chicago, IL facility, ensuring strict quality control and attention to detail.

The vibrant red powder coating is applied electrostatically and cured at high temperatures, creating a tough, corrosion-resistant surface that withstands harsh environments and off-road exposure. High-quality EPDM rubber dust boots and premium lubricants are used to protect moving parts and ensure smooth caliper operation over time.
