The body and pistons are machined from 6082 T6 aluminum alloy, keeping the assembled weight to approximately 2.04 pounds (925 grams). Mounting geometry matches the original with integral mounting lugs at a 3.25-inch bolt center spacing, so no bracket fabrication is required. External dust boots shield the piston bores from contamination. A black anodized finish resists corrosion and heat cycling. This caliper is intended for vehicles retaining their original solid brake discs and requires alloy wheels for clearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe m-16 caliper targets classic Ford performance and road applications where the OEM single-pot caliper is the limiting factor. It is rated for most road applications and heavier vehicles that need an M16-type upgrade. Brake line connection is via an M10x1 banjo fitting, which differs from the factory line fitting, so a replacement brake line or an appropriate adapter is required at installation. The caliper also replaces the earlier Type P16 caliper found on early Capri and Escort RS models as well as the Cortina Mk2 Lotus, 1600E, and 1600GT variants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-piston billet design replaces OEM M16 and Type P16 single-pot calipers with no bracket modification\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6082 T6 aluminum body and pistons for reduced unsprung weight at approximately 2.04 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntegral mounting lugs with 3.25-inch bolt center spacing match original mounting points\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExternal dust boots protect piston bores from dirt and debris ingress\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack anodized finish for corrosion and heat resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM10x1 banjo fitting connection — compatible with a new brake line or adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned to replace M16 calipers fitted as standard to Ford Escort Mk1 and Mk2 RS and Mexico models, Escort Mk2, Capri 1970 onward, and Cortina Mk3, Mk4, and Mk5.

Always depressurize and isolate the hydraulic brake circuit before removing any caliper. Because the m-16 uses an M10x1 banjo fitting rather than the original line fitting, a new brake line or a compatible adapter must be sourced and fitted before the system is closed and bled. After installation, bleed the brake system fully and verify pedal firmness before returning the vehicle to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCaliper Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-piston billet, single-piece with integral mounting lugs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody and Piston Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6082 T6 aluminum alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.04 pounds (925 grams)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBolt Mounting Centers\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.25 inches (82.5 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrake Line Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: M10x1 banjo fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black anodized\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDisc Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: Original solid discs only\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Requirement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy wheels only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ESCORT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: m-16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ESCORT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51200563740978,"sku":"M-16","price":15.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/BILLET4-V-2.jpg?v=1779689970","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/escort-m-16-billet-4-pot-brake-caliper-escort-capri-cortina","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
