Park Tool
Disc Brake Piston Spreader PP-1.2
The unique wedge-shaped PP-1.2 slides into a hydraulic disc brake caliper to pre-set the piston when replacing pads, aligning pads and other maintenance procedures. Makes hydraulic disc brake maintenance and repair faster and easier.
The PP-1.2 parking tool slides between the brake pads in a caliper, allowing the user to spread the pads and compress the pistons when servicing pads or wheels. The PP-1.2 increases the gap between the pads so the disc can be easily inserted between the pads when reinstalling a caliper or wheel. The dual density "Sure Grip" handle provides a positive grip.
The PP-1.2 fits Shimano XTR caliper housings.
NOTE: Wedge-shaped piston tools, such as the PP-1.2, are not intended for use with ceramic pistons in Shimano road disc calipers.
