What are the two types of caliper disc brakes?
1 Answers
Caliper disc brakes can be divided into two types: fixed caliper disc brakes and floating caliper disc brakes. Here is an introduction to the advantages of disc brakes: 1. Better heat dissipation: Compared to drum brakes, disc brakes are less likely to experience brake fade and failure when braking continuously. 2. Minimal thermal expansion: The thermal expansion of the brake disc in the thickness direction is extremely small, and the change in size after heating does not increase the travel of the brake pedal. 3. Rapid system response: The disc brake system responds quickly, allowing for high-frequency braking actions, making it more suitable for the requirements of ABS systems.
