Compatible Brake Calipers
- The SW-POST2016-DC is intended for the newer post-2016 Australian/AL-KO-style mechanical disc brake caliper.
- A separate supplier confirms that Saltwater's post-2016 pad design suits AL-KO mechanical post-2016 calipers and also identifies compatibility with Meher-style calipers using pad-retaining bolts for the stainless version of this pad pattern.
- Fitment should therefore be confirmed by the existing caliper and pad shape, particularly the two retaining-bolt holes.
Suitable Applications
- Suitable for compatible boat trailers, aluminium boat trailers, fibreglass boat trailers, single-axle trailers and tandem-axle marine trailers fitted with the appropriate post-2016 mechanical disc-brake caliper.
Signs Brake Pads Need Replacing
- Check the pads if you notice reduced braking performance, low friction-material thickness, uneven wear, cracking, contamination, excessive noise or corrosion/damage around the backing plate.
- When changing the pads, also inspect the disc rotor, caliper slides/pivots, actuating lever, brake cable, retaining bolts and mounting hardware.
