4501001 Pin, Brake Caliper Pin

The 4501001 Brake Caliper Pin is a critical component within the air disc brake system, designed to ensure the smooth movement and precise positioning of the brake caliper. Manufactured with high-strength components, this part provides essential stability during heavy-duty braking operations, preventing misalignment and maintaining consistent braking force. Its robust construction is engineered to withstand rigorous thermal and mechanical stresses encountered in heavy commercial vehicle environments.

This technical component is the OE-equivalent of the MERITOR brake caliper pin used in DAF, IVECO, and VOLVO heavy commercial vehicles. It is specifically designed to maintain system integrity within compatible hydraulic and pneumatic braking architectures. By ensuring precise caliper travel, it directly contributes to the safety and predictable handling of the vehicle during deceleration.

For workshop technicians, the 4501001 offers a straightforward installation process within the brake caliper assembly. Given its role in the braking system, it is essential to verify that the diameter dimensions—specifically the Ø 20 / 71 mm specification—match the existing hardware perfectly before assembly. Regular inspection of caliper pins during routine maintenance can prevent uneven brake wear and ensure optimal braking performance across the fleet.
