The Park Tool PP-1.2 Brake Piston Press is a handy tool designed for disc brake maintenance and service. It easily slides between the brake pads inside the caliper, allowing you to spread the pads and compress the hydraulic pistons when replacing or aligning the pads. With the PP-1.2, you can effortlessly expand the gap between the pads, making it simple to insert the disc between them during caliper or wheel reinstallation. The tool features a dual-density handle that provides a comfortable and secure grip. It is compatible with most hydraulic disc brake caliper bodies, including Shimano XTR.
