How is the quality of tei brake calipers?
2 Answers
tei brake calipers are of very good quality. Here is some knowledge about tei calipers: 1. Company introduction: Tei-Racing is a brand under Guangzhou Hongzhi Industrial Auto Accessories Co., Ltd., with its trademark registered in Germany in 2013. Therefore, it is generally correct to say that TEI is German, but this only refers to the trademark registration, not the actual production location. 2. Braking principle: The brake consists of brake pads and brake calipers. The working principle of the brake is achieved through intense friction between the brake pads and the brake calipers.
I've driven for over a decade and tried TEI's brake calipers several times. To be honest, the overall quality is quite reliable, with quick braking response and no sticking or strange noises. They usually use forged aluminum material, and the lightweight design reduces the burden on the wheels, making driving smoother. The durability in daily driving is also good, and it's not a big problem if you don't replace them for a year or two. However, you need to pay attention to the matching of brake pads, as mixing different brands can sometimes cause minor issues, such as longer braking distances. I recommend regularly checking the caliper pistons and oil seals, which helps extend their lifespan. Otherwise, worn seals may lead to oil leaks, affecting safety. Overall, TEI offers good value for money among mid-range brands and is suitable for experienced drivers who prioritize cost-effectiveness. It's best to have them installed by a professional shop, as the braking system is not something to take lightly.
