Disc Brake Caliper Wind-Back Tool

The item depicted is a specialty automotive tool, most likely a disk brake caliper wind-back tool, presented in its custom-fitted red plastic carrying case. The main tool component is constructed from heavy-duty, grey-finished metal, likely steel or a similar alloy, giving it a robust and durable appearance. It features a circular main body with a flat, elongated arm extending from one side. In the center of the circular body, there's a mechanism with two black pins or prongs, arranged vertically, designed to engage with indentations on a brake caliper piston. A black hex bolt or similar fastener is visible on the flat arm, and three small black screws secure portions of the central mechanism. Text engraved on the flat arm reads "ROTATE ROTTER IN THIS DIRECTION" (note: 'Rotter' could be a misspelling of 'Rotor' or 'Piston', or refer to a specific part of the tool). On the right side, a handle with a crank mechanism is attached, allowing the user to rotate the internal components for the 'wind-back' function. The handle is L-shaped and appears to be made of steel, showing some minor wear or scuffs consistent with use. The red plastic case is molded to perfectly fit the tool and its handle, indicating it's been designed for secure storage and transport. The case shows general signs of light use, such as minor scuffs but no significant cracks or damage. The overall condition appears good, with no obvious signs of heavy corrosion or severe damage. The tool's construction suggests it is designed for precision and repetitive use in automotive maintenance tasks, particularly for vehicles requiring the brake caliper piston to be rotated back into the caliper body.
