The caliper itself is a forged monobloc radial unit with a 108 mm centre distance and 22.5 mm offset, carrying four aluminium pistons of 34 mm diameter behind a fitted dust seal, with pads already in place under code AGPA134. Fitting a new caliper of this kind is work for a qualified workshop, and the finish chosen does not change what has to be checked once it is bolted on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRadial brake caliper, forged monobloc body, made in Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack anodised finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e108 mm centre distance, 22.5 mm offset\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour aluminium pistons, 34 mm diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDust seal fitted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePads included, code AGPA134, compound OR, ST or ZXC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed for 76 models in our garage, see the Fitment tab\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied as a left caliper, right caliper or matched pair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and Material Quality\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAccossato forges the PZ004 body and finishes it on five-axis CNC machines, checking the result on three-dimensional measuring equipment before the body goes through a hard oxidation treatment and then anodising. Four aluminium pistons of 34 mm diameter run behind the fitted dust seal, and the pads supplied under code AGPA134 are already fitted when the caliper leaves the factory. None of this changes with the black anodised finish; it is the same body, pistons and seal as the brighter colours in the range, just without the colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a Workshop Checks Before the First Ride\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnce a caliper like the PZ004 is bolted to the fork leg, a workshop will typically check the torque on the mounting bolts, the routing and clamping of the brake line or hose, and the alignment of the pads against the disc before bleeding the system with fresh fluid. Accossato specifies bleeding valve torque at 8-10 Nm using a torque wrench rather than by hand, and recommends blowing compressed air around the valve afterwards to clear any oil left in the thread. These checks apply whatever finish is chosen, and they matter more for a plain black caliper than a bright one only in the sense that a workshop has fewer colour cues to double-check which caliper is fitted where.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAccossato lists the PZ004 against 76 motorcycles in our garage, see the Fitment tab, among them the Honda CBR600RR, Honda CB1000R RA and Kawasaki Ninja 1100SX. The Fitment tab carries 120 entries in total for this caliper, each tied to a specific model and year, and checking that list before a workshop orders parts avoids a mismatch at fitting time. Where a bike does not appear there, the 108 mm centre distance and 22.5 mm offset are the figures a workshop will measure against the existing disc and mount.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRoad Approval\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo ABE is documented for this caliper in Germany, so fitting it to a road-registered bike in place of the original caliper needs to be registered with the responsible authority before the bike is used on public roads again. Because the brake system is safety-relevant, the fitting itself should be carried out by a qualified workshop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eScope of Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Accossato PZ004 forged monobloc radial brake caliper in black anodised finish, supplied as a left caliper, right caliper or matched pair depending on the option chosen, with aluminium pistons, dust seal and pads in the selected compound already fitted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Forged monobloc radial brake caliper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentre distance: 108 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffset: 22.5 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePistons: Aluminium, 34 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDust seal: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePads: 4x, code AGPA134, included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturing: Forged monobloc, CNC-machined\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Black anodised\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFitment: 120 applications, see Fitment tab\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoad approval: No ABE documented\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Accossato","offers":[{"title":"OR \/ Pair","offer_id":53905066590474,"sku":"PZ004N-OR","price":794.75,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"OR \/ Right caliper","offer_id":53905066721546,"sku":"PZ004N-DX-OR","price":390.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"ST \/ Right caliper","offer_id":53905066754314,"sku":"PZ004N-DX-ST","price":415.17,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"ZXC \/ Right caliper","offer_id":53905066787082,"sku":"PZ004N-DX-ZXC","price":431.09,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"ST \/ Pair","offer_id":53905066819850,"sku":"PZ004N-ST","price":819.72,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"OR \/ Left caliper","offer_id":53905066852618,"sku":"PZ004N-SX-OR","price":390.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"ST \/ Left caliper","offer_id":53905066885386,"sku":"PZ004N-SX-ST","price":415.17,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"ZXC \/ Left caliper","offer_id":53905066918154,"sku":"PZ004N-SX-ZXC","price":431.09,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"ZXC \/ Pair","offer_id":53905066950922,"sku":"PZ004N-ZXC","price":847.59,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/PZ004-BLACK-ANODISED_1.png?v=1791897364","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/products\/accossato-radial-brake-caliper-forged-monoblock-108-mm-aluminium-pistons-black-anodised-pz004","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
