4161008 Roller, Brake Caliper Mechanism - CATERPILLAR

The 4161008 roller is a critical component within the brake caliper mechanism, designed to ensure smooth and consistent movement during braking operations. Engineered to withstand rigorous heavy-duty conditions, this part plays a vital role in the stability and responsiveness of the air disc brake system. By maintaining precise mechanical alignment, it helps prevent irregular wear in the caliper assembly.

This product serves as a high-strength replacement for several industry standards. Specifically, 4161008 is the OE-equivalent of the CATERPILLAR 3429202, MERITOR MCK1344, FRUEHAUF CF104618, and BREDAMENARINIBUS 193107 components used in heavy commercial vehicle braking systems. It is highly compatible with MERITOR DX 195 and DX 225 models, as well as various ASTRA and IVECO-related braking architectures where these specific mechanical dimensions are required.

For workshop technicians, installing this roller requires precision to ensure the caliper mechanism functions without binding or excessive play. Regular inspection of the caliper mechanism during scheduled maintenance is recommended to ensure that such components are free from debris and operating within optimal tolerances. This part is designed for seamless integration into existing heavy-duty brake systems to maintain vehicle safety and operational uptime.

Proper selection of this component ensures that the braking force is applied uniformly, reducing the risk of uneven pad wear or system vibration. It is an essential spare part for maintaining the structural integrity of the braking system in high-load environments.
