Some Brake Pads are fitted with wire clamps located on the back plate. See image below:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The inner (piston side) pads are fitted with wire clamps. These must be correctly seated into the external groove cut into the piston. This ensures that the pad remains in contact with the piston at all times and is essential for the correct operation of the caliper.

Failure to observe this will result in serious brake noise and damage to the caliper.

Pads with this feature include:

BBP0139 - Ford Transit Connect - 1.8 - 02-13
BBP0203 - Mini Cooper - 1.6 - 01-06

For further information on this or any other issue please contact your local FPS representative.
