QT485D6-3502100 EST-A Left Caliper – Engineered for Consistent High-Performance Braking

The QT485D6-3502100 Left Brake Caliper Assembly (EST-A Type) is a precision-machined component that houses the hydraulic pistons and brake pads, applying clamping force to the brake disc to slow or stop the vehicle. This caliper is designed for the left-hand side of the axle and is a critical part of the EST-A disc brake system, known for its lightweight construction, high thermal capacity, and excellent modulation.

The caliper body is manufactured from high-strength aluminum alloy, providing excellent rigidity with reduced unsprung mass, improving vehicle handling and ride comfort. The internal pistons are precision-ground and chrome-plated to ensure smooth, corrosion-free operation, while the high-temperature rubber seals and dust boots protect against contamination and maintain hydraulic integrity.

Designed as a direct OEM replacement, the QT485D6-3502100 guarantees that your HOWO chassis maintains its factory braking balance and performance, providing the pedal feel and stopping power that drivers expect. The caliper is fully assembled with guide pins, springs, and bleed screws, ready for installation.

With the QT485D6-3502100, SINOTRUK HOWO delivers a new benchmark in brake caliper reliability. Every unit is pressure-tested for leaks, inspected for piston retraction, and verified for sliding pin smoothness, ensuring that each caliper provides consistent braking and long service life.
