The Power Stop S5118 brake calipers represent a premium performance upgrade specifically engineered for select Cadillac models, including the 2008-2014 CTS series and 2012-2016 SRX series. As a pair of rear red calipers with brackets, these components are designed to directly replace the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) calipers, ensuring a precise fit and reliable operation. Manufactured by Power Stop, a reputable brand known for its commitment to quality and innovation in braking systems, these calipers embody the highest standards of durability and performance.
Power Stop, headquartered in Chicago, IL, specializes in the remanufacturing of brake components that meet rigorous testing and quality assurance protocols. Each caliper in this set undergoes 100% pressure testing to verify piston functionality and to prevent leaks, thereby guaranteeing safety and consistent braking performance. The calipers are assembled with new pistons, seals, slide pins (where applicable), dust boots, bleeder screws, and stainless steel brake pad abutment clips, ensuring every element contributes to optimal functionality and longevity.
One of the distinguishing features of these calipers is their high-temperature red electrostatic powder coating. This finish not only enhances the aesthetic appeal, providing a striking visual accent behind stock or custom wheels, but also offers superior resistance to rust and corrosion. This protective coating significantly extends the service life of the calipers, even under demanding driving conditions. Additionally, the use of high-temperature EPDM rubber dust boots combined with premium silicone lubricant facilitates smoother operation and durability in extreme environments.
