CSB Caliper Brakes
Spring-Applied Hydraulic-Release Caliper Brakes & Brake Pads Made In Australia
Custom Fluidpower (CFP) manufactures a range of spring-applied, hydraulic release (SAHR) fail-safe caliper brakes under the banner Custom Safe Brakes (CSB).
Designed and manufactured by CFP in Australia for the most demanding mining and marine environments, our industrial brakes and custom brake pads have been utilised across the globe since 2006.
From heavy-duty brake calipers to sintered metal brake pads, we can provide robust solutions to fulfil your braking system requirements. Experience the convenience and cost benefits of these locally engineered, made, stocked and supported hydraulic brake parts today!
CSB Standard Caliper Brakes
Our Brakes Centre of Excellence is in Perth, Western Australia, where our team of skilled engineers use the latest technology to bring our customers local service backed by national strength.
The CSB Standard Range of caliper brakes is available in a 200, 300, 3000 and 5000 series, with a clamping force ranging from 500N to 250kN. The CSB range is easily interchangeable with other brake calipers in the market and can also be custom-manufactured to your needs.

CSAB Self-Adjusting Brake Calipers
Our CSAB200 and CSAB300 brakes are spring-applied / hydraulic release, self-adjusting brake calipers, delivering fail-safe disc braking with a clamping force between 12-40kN. Pad wear compensation is automatic, as a fixed air gap is maintained throughout the life of the pad.
Benefits of our self-adjusting brake caliper range include up to 80% reduced maintenance requirements and optimised spring force through automatic adjustments. This patented technology is designed for harsh mining and marine environments and is ideally suited for use in remote locations.

Australian Power Unit (APU) For Industrial Brakes
Australian Power Units (APUs) for industrial brakes manufactured by CFP range from a standard line (0.37, 0.75 and 2.2kW) to tailored designs, specific to the customer’s configuration and power input requirements. Some of the standard versions include:
- Quick lift – Where the requirement is to have the brake caliper lifted quickly
- Proportional braking – For constant braking times, regardless of drive loads
- Redundancy valves – For all valving in the APU, enhancing safety requirements
CSB series spring-applied brakes provide a technical solution that meets increased issues of safety, and provides higher levels of reliability and improved brake function for today’s increased demands relating to controlled braking applications.

Custom Brake Pads
The CSB range of caliper brakes can all be supplied with Organic or Sintered metal brake pads. In-house testing has proven that our custom brake pads are superior to any alternative currently on the market.
Custom Safe Caliper Brakes
CSB series spring-applied brakes are put through a rigorous testing process by our engineers on our test rig facilities in our product development centre to ensure high performance and quality. Our real point of difference is that our customers have access to our engineers and specialist technicians every step of the way through the project and we provide service and advice long after our field service team install and commission.
Our field service team is on the ground providing asset management and data to our customers and our engineers to complete the circle of customer support. Custom Fluidpower has a range of industrial brakes with successful trials installed at renowned West Australian mine sites.
CSB brake calipers will become the preferred option for many end users because of the design simplicity, availability of replacement calipers and localised spare brake system parts, and service capabilities across Australia.
Design & Maintain Hydraulic Brake Parts
Custom Fluidpower specialises in designing complete brake system parts for all needs, from OEMs to end-users, including automation and electronics.
Regardless of the type of hydraulic brake parts, our expert team of designers and engineers will be with you during every step of the process from conception to installation, plus ongoing maintenance and support.
