100% New Caliper – Manufacturer recommends replacing calipers in pairs. With innovative fixed and floating calipers in aluminum and nodular cast iron, ATE is Europe’s market leader. And there is a good reason for that: during development, ATE simulates operational stresses in terms of braking load, vibration, corrosion and wear in extensive series of trials. This means that every basic safety-relevant function is ensured, the sealing of the hydraulic system as much as the venting function of the piston (roll-back), the return (knock-back) function, or the function of the housing/pad guides. ATE original brake calipers are supplied ready-to-install: rear-axle calipers with handbrake are usually pre-filled and preset. This permits simple and correct bleeding in the vehicle.

Product Features:

• OE quality direct fit application.
• Friction Ready
• Corrosion inhibiting protection
• Ensures long life and maximum performance
• Natural exterior finish

Since 2008 Zimmermann is offering almost 400 Standard and almost 400 Sports Brake Discs in a coated version named Coat Z. The Zimmermann Coat-Z brake disc provides a protective coating that prevents rust and corrosion, extended rotor life and improved visual appearance. To improve the rust protection during storage and usage, Otto Zimmermann GmbH implements this new Coat-Z technology step by step in its production range. Beside the still optimum function of the brake disc, this coating ensures a consistent attractive appearance. Zimmermann brake discs are usually made of cast iron (with flake graphite) of different qualities; they correspond to the material used for the original spare parts. Therefore, the utilization of such materials (referred to as High Carbon by the competition) has always been a matter of course for Otto Zimmermann.

Product Features:

• Coat-Z protective anti-corrosion coating
• No formation of rust at the hub and herewith improved visual appearance
• Immediate functional capability without removal of the coating before mounting
• Excellent deceleration action and no distortion of friction ring at high temperatures
• Substantial weight saving and therefore less unsprung mass
• Floating mounting enables radial expansion of the brake disc under relatively heavy loads, thus preventing shielding and increasing resistance to heat cracks
• Hot spots prevented by optimized design of ventilation channels
• 1:1 exchange of original disc possible
• Not subject to registration: general ABE certification supplied with disc
• No conversion required for brake tuning
