Easily Insert Disk Between Pads!

"Works as advertised! This spreader is a huge help in changing the pads!!" -Riley D.


Why Buy Our Hydraulic Piston Press for Bicycle Disc Brakes?

✅EASY TO USE: This tool slides between bicycle disc brake pads inside the caliper, which allows you to spread the pads and compress the pistons when replacing pads, aligning pads, or performing other service procedures. With a dual density handle that provides a positive grip.


✅VERSATILE: It's 25mm wide and fits into most hydraulic disc brake caliper bodies of 2011+ XTR brakes including Shimano XTR. The total insertable length of the tool is 26mm and the thickness of the wedge is 4.1mm.


❗️Reminders❗️

  • Wedge-style pistons like this tool are not intended for use with brake systems that utilize ceramic pistons, such as Shimano road disc brake calipers.

Five Star

I know I can just use a screwdriver in lieu of this tool, but the curved handle enables me to wiggle the tool back-n-forth so I can give the pistons a little extra push

Must Have

I use this tool mostly for cleaning the pistons on brakes. But its a must have tool for doing any kind of maintenance on hydraulic brakes. Does not damage the pistons. Its made solidly and will last forever

Convenient

Very helpfull to retract Sram 4 pistons, cause they are particular hard to move.

Less Risky To Use

Works very well. If you have disk brakes you should get one of these as you will sooner or later need it. Wide flat head screw drivers may do the same, but this tool is more convenient and less risky to use.
