{"product_id":"hydraulic-disc-brake-caliper","title":"Hydraulic Disc Brake Caliper","description":"\u003cp\u003eLoadForce TA400 hydraulic galvanised cast iron trailer brake caliper with stainless steel piston. An improved design that directly\u003cbr\u003ereplaces the Al-Ko and Trojan MK7 caliper which are fitted with phenolic plastic pistons. Phenolic pistons are renowned for swelling and\u003cbr\u003eeventually seize in the caliper. The Loadforce TA400 caliper eliminates this fault by using a billet stainless steel piston. A short video on\u003cbr\u003estainless steel caliper pistons is available here. (opens Youtube in a new window).\u003cbr\u003eThe slide pins in the TA400 have also been upgraded to a stronger design.\u003cbr\u003eThe LoadForce TA400 caliper fits 1\/2 inch up to 5\/8 inch rotor thickness.\u003cbr\u003e1 x TA400BOLTKIT required for mounting. A HU4 union and CW1 copper washer are also required for installation of the brake line to the\u003cbr\u003ecaliper.\u003cbr\u003eBefore connecting your new brake caliper to hydraulic brake lines you must flush out the old brake fluid from the actuator (master\u003cbr\u003ecylinder or electric\/hydraulic pump) and brake lines before connecting this new brake caliper.\u003cbr\u003eOnce flushed, then connect brake lines, refresh the system with new brake fluid and bleed air from the brake system.\u003cbr\u003eCompatible with Dot 3 and Dot 4 brake fluid, however we do recommend using Dot 4 Brake fluid as it has higher moisture resistance.\u003cbr\u003eFailure to flush the system could void warranty.\u003cbr\u003eThe brake pads used in this caliper a premium product specifically designed for trailer applications. Large trailers carrying heavy loads\u003cbr\u003ecan generate very high brake temperatures. The heavy duty asbestos free friction material formulation used in the LoadForce product\u003cbr\u003eis capable of handling high temperatures for long time periods and minimizes the chances of brake fade.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"coffs-metal-market","offers":[{"title":"Hydraulic Disc Brake Caliper TA400 \/ TA400","offer_id":44209364467805,"sku":"0005480","price":0.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1368\/6589\/files\/hyd_brake_caliper_ta400.webp?v=1771388118","url":"https:\/\/coffsmetalmarket.com.au\/products\/hydraulic-disc-brake-caliper","provider":"coffs-metal-market","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
