Will it fit my car?
It fits the vast majority of front calipers and rear calipers with straight-in pistons.
Rear calipers with an integrated parking brake use a screw-in piston that has to be wound back with a rotating tool — this press alone won't retract those. Check your rear caliper before ordering if you're doing the rear axle.

"Expensive but better quality than the Chinese knock offs . Thicker steel plates, thicker plastic on the handle, nicer rivets and an easier ratchet mechanism that makes it easier to use."
Still pushing pistons back with a C-clamp?
You know how it goes. The clamp slips. There's nowhere safe to put it without catching the brake line. You swap to a screwdriver, then a pry bar, then vice grips and a block of wood — and you finish with sore knuckles and a job that took twice as long as it should have.
And every slip risks scratching the piston or tearing the dust boot on a caliper that costs far more than the tool.
The Caliper Press 2.0 fixes that.
Drop it between the pads' seats, spread it, and ratchet. The two flat plates push the pistons back evenly and straight — no prying, no slipping, no guessing.
-Faster — pistons back in seconds, not minutes
-Safer for your brakes — flat, even pressure instead of a single clamp point
-Easier on your hands — one-handed ratchet, no more busted knuckles
-Cheaper than the shop — do your own pads and keep the labour money

As a mechanic for 40+ years, I can honestly say this tool makes brake jobs much easier.. Instead of fighting with C-clamps, this tool compresses the caliper piston smoothly and evenly with very little effort.
This brake caliper press made brake jobs much faster and easier than using a C-clamp. It’s sturdy, well-built, and provides smooth, even pressure to compress the caliper piston without damaging the piston or brake components. The handle offers a comfortable grip, and the tool is easy to control, even in tight spaces.
I bought this tool to help with a brake pad replacement, and it made the job much easier. It’s easy to use, feels sturdy, and works as expected. It’s a useful tool to have if you do basic car maintenance at home.
It spreads. It doesn't squeeze
Two flat steel plates sit against the full face of the piston and push it straight back into its bore. Square, even, and with nothing to slide off.
The ratchet holds every click, so the piston stays where you put it. No springback, no starting over.
The handle turns a full 360°, so you work from whatever angle the wheel well gives you. With the caliper still bolted to the car.
