Hand Brake Caliper Piston Separator Set, NEO tools 11-122, 18 pieces

NEO tools Hand Brake Caliper Piston Separator Set, 18 pieces, is a dedicated brake service kit designed to retract and compress caliper pistons safely and accurately. The set combines multiple separator plates and adapters to accommodate different caliper types used in passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. It is intended for workshop mechanics and experienced DIY users who perform brake pad replacement, caliper maintenance and piston resetting.

Advantages

The kit provides a selection of plates and adapters that allow adapting the tool to various piston shapes and caliper configurations without forcing components. Made for repeated workshop use, the set reduces the risk of piston or caliper damage by providing even pressure and controlled retraction. The compact case keeps parts organized for quick selection during routine brake service and saves time compared with improvised methods.

Suitable for

• Retracting and compressing brake caliper pistons during pad replacement
• Caliper maintenance and inspection in automotive repair shops
• DIY brake service on passenger cars and light commercial vehicles

Key specifications

• Contents: 18 pieces including multiple separator plates and adapters
• Compatibility: designed to fit a wide range of caliper types and piston shapes
• Material: durable metal components suited for repeated mechanical pressure
• Storage: compact case for organized transport and storage
• Intended use: manual piston retraction and compression during brake service

How to use

Select the appropriate separator plate and adapter for the caliper piston shape and install them between the caliper housing and piston. Position the tool so pressure is applied evenly across the piston, then turn or operate the separator mechanism to retract or compress the piston steadily until there is sufficient clearance for pad replacement or caliper service. Follow vehicle manufacturer guidance for piston resetting sequence when applicable and ensure parking brake mechanisms are disengaged on rear calipers where required.

Usage recommendations

Use the set on clean components and avoid contaminating brake pads and rotors with grease. Apply steady, even pressure and inspect pistons and seals for damage during retraction. If excessive resistance or leakage is found, stop and service the caliper assembly before continuing.
