Actuator Arm Nuts

These nuts are typically found on the rear brake calipers, where the parking brake mechanism is located. They are used to secure the cam arm to the caliper mechanism, preventing it from moving or spinning out of place.

Blanking Plugs

Blanking plugs are used to seal off any unused or disconnected threaded connections in a vehicle's brake system, which can include master cylinders, brake calipers, and brake line connections, to prevent leaks and contamination.

Brake Pad Pins

These metal pins, secure the brake pad within the caliper and allow the pad to move back and forth smoothly.

Cam Arm Internal Bearings

Typically, a small roller or needle bearing, designed to reduce friction and facilitate smooth movement of the cam arm inside the caliper. A worn or damaged cam arm internal bearing can cause the handbrake to seize or become difficult to operate.

Circlips

These are small flexible metal rings that are used to secure or retain parts within a cylinder, such as an adjustor mechanism or within the caliper housing. 

Casting Seals

Casting seals are crucial for maintaining the integrity of a brake caliper, especially in multi-piston calipers, where the caliper body consists of two or more cast iron or alloy halves that must be sealed. A failed casting seal can lead to brake fluid leaks, which can reduce braking performance, increase stopping distances, and potentially lead to brake failure.

R-clips

Small metal pieces, shaped like the letter "R", that secures the brake pad retaining pin in place within the brake caliper. Using new R clips when replacing brake pads helps ensure proper function and prevents uneven brake pad wear, which can lead to problems like brake noise or vibration.

Thread repair inserts

Bleed nipple thread repair inserts are used to repair damaged or stripped threaded holes to provide a new, strong thread for bleed screws..

Assembly Paste

Frentech Brake Assembly Grease is a vegetable oil-based formulation, suitable for use with rubber and metal components.

Washers

These washers are used to ensure a tight seal between components, preventing fluid from leaking from brake lines or other hydraulic systems. They are designed for single use and should be replaced after being removed from a connection.

Anti-squeal compound

Frentech Anti-squeal compound is a meal-free lubricant designed for the back surfaces of pads, retaining clips and sliders – everywhere there is movements (not the pad surface).
