What is the function of a car caliper?
1 Answers
The functions of a car caliper are: 1. To significantly enhance braking force; 2. To slow down, stop, or maintain the stopped state of moving wheels; 3. To press the brake pads against the brake disc to generate braking effect; 4. To prevent impurity particles from damaging the piston. The colors of car calipers are: red, yellow, and gray. A car caliper is the component that applies force to the outer protruding part of the brake disc. The hydraulic pressure generated by the brake master cylinder acts on the piston inside the caliper. After the piston expands, it pushes the brake pads against the brake disc, thereby enhancing braking performance.
