100% quality

  • All products are 100% end of line tested during production
  • Every Brake Caliper is guaranteed for 60,000 miles (100,000km)

 

The world’s most popular Brake Caliper


TRW Automotive has manufactured over 400 million Brake Calipers to date, which gives us unparalleled expertise in the aftermarket. That means wider coverage and easier fitting to keep your business moving, and better safety from new innovations to keep your customers satisfied every time.

One such innovation was the TRW Colette caliper, the world’s most popular Brake Caliper, which continues to be fitted to over 170 models produced by over 30 motor vehicle manufacturers worldwide. And TRW continues to innovate for new models and the aftermarket.

 

Brake Calipers manufactured to original equipment quality


TRW is a premium quality parts manufacturer, designing and building so much of the original equipment that vehicles are fitted with when they roll out of the factory, and you’ll get that same quality when you buy from TRW Aftermarket. For new replacement Brake Calipers, our aftermarket customers get the same OE/OES part quality, delivered from one of our five original equipment factories in Europe.

 

Safer for you, your customer – and the environment


You can reduce costs to your business and the environment by choosing our remanufactured calipers. We offer the same guarantee with remanufactured calipers as we do on new ones. That’s because they’re 100% checked, cleaned, worn components replaced, reassembled, and 100% end of line tested. We’ve put our trust in the remanufacturing quality of these parts, so you can, too.

 

The tools you need for a faster fit


We offer you exceptional coverage from a refined Brake Caliper range. That means you can spend less time searching for parts and more time fitting them, keeping jobs moving through the garage to increase business. With TRW, you can enjoy the convenience of buying a wide range of new and remanufactured products from the same source, with the same level of warranty. Every box contains the caliper plus all fitting accessories and fitting instructions needed to fit fast and fit right. Find out more below…

Innovations

  • Aluminium Brake Calipers
    These lighter braking components are designed to meet the global need for improved fuel consumption
  • Foundation Brakes Composite
    High-performance brake calipers designed according to the floating caliper concept. With an increased lining area, and a lightweight composite design, FBC calipers help the braking system to run cooler and deliver enhanced stopping performance

 

Remanufacturing and the environment


Thanks to our remanufactured Brake Calipers, which are stripped, cleaned and rebuilt with OE quality parts to give you a caliper that performs just as well as the one that was originally fitted to the car, we’re saving more than 1,500 tonnes of CO2 a year.

Remanufacturing benefits you and the environment because:

  • A sustainable supply chain for aging parts helps you to avoid issues with parts becoming obsolete
  • They’re value for money: parts with low volumes can become very expensive to manufacture as new, but remanufacturing can support a reasonable price for these parts in the market
  • Remanufacturing uses just a fraction of the energy and CO2 required to make a brand new caliper

You can view our entire Brake Caliper range in our comprehensive catalogue on paper and online, so getting hold of the parts you need couldn’t be easier. The user-friendly catalogue is divided into four clearly marked sections and includes supersessions and an application section. It also includes an in- depth buyers guide and a handy OE cross-referencing section with diagrams to help with identification.
