Autojack Brake Caliper Ratchet Tool - Blue

This tool is suitable for most vehicles with fixed or floating calipers, including single, dual, and quad piston configurations.

The tool can extend up to 55mm to retract pistons.

The tool can operate down to a minimum distance of 32mm.

Yes, it is made of high-quality stainless steel for durability and is suitable for both professional and occasional use.

Clean the steel pads and mechanism with a dry cloth after use and store in a dry place to prevent rust. Inspect regularly for wear.

While the tool retracts pistons, it's designed for standard caliper pistons. Care should be taken with ceramic pistons to avoid chipping or damage, ensuring the pads remain perfectly parallel and pressure is applied evenly.

This tool has a maximum extension of 55mm. For larger calipers, a different tool or technique may be required.

Ensure the steel pads are fully engaged and parallel to the piston faces. Check that the caliper is not seized or damaged, which would require separate repair. Verify that the piston is within the tool's 32mm-55mm operating range.

Clean the ratchet mechanism thoroughly with a degreaser and then lubricate with a light penetrating oil. Ensure no debris is obstructing the gears. Avoid forcing the mechanism if it remains jammed, as this may indicate internal damage.

Ensure the tool is correctly positioned and that the pistons are moving straight. If the caliper bore is damaged or the piston is tilted, this may affect the tool's ability to keep the pads parallel. Re-center the tool and apply pressure slowly.
