Front 4 pot brake caliper casting bolt torque please?
 
Hi All,

Thanks in advance for any replies.

2.5 wrx hawkeye wagon. Front calipers are OEM sumitomo 4 pots smooth with white SUBARU decal.

Just stripped down & rebuilt my front calipers with new pistons & seals.
Trying to find the toque for the 4 x M10 by 1.25 mm pitch bolts that hold the 2 caliper half’s together (the casting bolts). Can’t find it anywhere :confused:.



Anyone know the torque?:wonder:

Hi Al,


No answer on this one so here is an update on the torque I used which was 65 Nm using Loctite 243 thread locker. The rebuilt calipers are spot on with no fluid leaks.

Yeah not much info on the bolt torque that joins calipers tigether

just refurbed mine , I used 80nm on mine as it seemed a good setting

Godspeed posted on a thread a while back about the torque setting when I was rebuilding my rears. Can't remember what it was though but I know that I couldn't tighten them fully without being bolted to the car first.
