Mueller-Kueps announced that their brake caliper file has been improved and reintroduced. The Mueller-Kueps Brake Caliper Files, Nos. 460 200 and 460 202, have been redesigned in that rather than featuring a plastic handle, the files now have a two-component rubber handle for a more comfortable and ergonomic grip. This will allow users to get a better handle on the tool to remove all coarse residue off the brake caliper. This high-quality tool comes in two different sizes: one for domestic cars and European imports (No. 460 200) and one for Asian import cars (No. 460 202). The 460 202 can also be used on most rear calipers. Using this file to clear the caliper prior to installing new brake pads will ensure that premature wear on said brake pads will not be an issue in the future. Mueller-Kueps recommends cleaning calipers at least once a year if the vehicle is operating in an area where it is prone to rust.
